Don’t panic and start doing burpees. Instead, try a gentle walk around the room or the block. The motion helps jostle that bubble of air along your intestines.
Alternatively, get on all fours like a cat. Do a “cat-cow” stretch by arching and rounding your back—it’s basically a yoga pose for passing gas. You’ll feel a release, and that’s a win.
If you’re stuck at your desk, try knee-to-chest stretches. Lie on your back, hug your knees, and gently rock side to side. It’s like a hug for your tummy, and it often convinces the wind to wave goodbye.
