“Office chair butt” is the latest workplace wellness concern—but there’s a solution

People on TikTok are warning others against “office chair butt.” Simply put, office chair butt is the flattened rear end that results from sitting at a desk all day. According to doctors, office chair butt refers to gluteal atrophy and muscle loss. It can happen to people who work jobs that require them to sit for eight or more hours, especially if they aren’t getting to the gym outside office hours. 

TikTok creators determined to keep their butts in shape are sharing how they’re getting their squats in, on the clock.
