    **Seated Punches: 1) Sit at the edge of your chair. 2) Jab the arms forward for 10, 3) Jab them at an upwards angle for 10. 4) Jab them at a downwards angle for 10. 5) Alternate and repeat ___. (Note - Do not lock out the elbows)

    A lot of those can be done pretty much under cover... but this one... I'm picturing Rocky at the top of the stairs after his run...

    Though, on the subject of stairs; start using them. I work on the 9th floor of a 30 floor building. I can't get access to climb up to the 9th floor from the lobby in the morning, but I do take the stairs down most of the time. When I can, I first walk UP 10 or 15 floors... then all the way back down.

    I'd summarize that as "take the scenic route."

    HAHA! I totally visualized that. I'm up to 200 squats a day, just 50, 4x day while at work. It's helping a ton! Plus walking 2 miles at work with my laps around campus.

    I just imagine someone walking through an office and seeing only arms punching over the top of the cubicles.

    Bump!

    These are pretty much the same exercises I do 3 times a week at a Sit & Be Fit class! Great too for older folks or those of us who are handicapped and can't do the amount of walking we should do! good post !
