I know you're thinking I'm nuts! Bear in mind this is not a normal workout I'd usually give, mainly stretches to keep you loose during your flight. And please, keep your tray in the upright position while doing these exercises!nnBefore you sit in your seat grab hold of the overhead storage shelf and with your arms straight, drop down as much of your body weight as you can keeping your arms straight. This will stretch out a lot of muscles in the upper body including the back, chest and shoulders.nnLeg stretches while seated are vital. Straighten out one leg at a time to keep the hamstrings loose while being seated on long flights. If you have to use the restroom during the flight, walk on your tip toes to get there. This will keep the blood flowing in the lower leg. Also, be sure to stretch the chest by placing your palms at your lower back and then bring your elbows as close as you can together.nnYou can also stretch the neck while you are seated. Place your hand on the crown of your head, from there gently push your head down so your chin touches your chest. Hold for a few seconds then place your hand to the right side of your head and tilt your head to the left. Hold for a few seconds then repeat on the other side.nnAnd there you have it, a few workouts to get you started on getting fit anywhere you may be. I hope you enjoy the workouts.
