Back in Miami after a quick and successful yet absolutely exhausting trip to LA.
The 5 hour flight can be brutal on my body so I try to stay as active as I can on the plane without annoying the hell out of my neighbor.?
Sitting for long periods of time, especially with the legs bent and immobile can cause circulatory complications, stiffness and swelling.
Here are a few of my in flight tips and stretches to keep the blood flowing and achy knees at bay:
- Drink as much water as you typically do! The more you drink, the more you pee. The more you pee, the more you move!
- Stay away from processed salty food. (well you should always stay away from it but especially on a flight!) The excess sodium coupled with the change in pressure causes water retention.
- Every hour or so, straighten your legs as much as possible in a seated position then point and flex your feet for 20 reps.
- After your feet are flexed, hug both knees to your chest and round the back. If you can't do both legs at the same time, hold one leg for 10 seconds, then switch.
- Then, do 10 shoulder shrugs and 10 neck circles
- Grasp the hands together then lift your arms in the air and into a stretch while seated. Reach tall and do a slight body bend to the right and left.

These stretches are simple and discrete enough so that you get all the benefits but refrain from being that guy" hitting the quad stretch or the toe touch in the middle of the isle.?
