10,000 steps for office workers?

I agree with parking far away. Also use the bathroom on a different floor and take the long way to meetings. If you print something, choose a printer you have to walk to. Hand deliver things. It is (short term) not the most efficient way to work, but by being healthier you can be (long term) more productive.

You have to be extremely creative. Try to get at least 1,000 in before you get to work. Park far away from the building. Take the long way to the restrooms or use the ones furthest away, even maybe on another floor, walk during lunch, and take the stairs. I try to get up every hour for about 5 to 10 minutes, get steps in and gives your eyes a break from the computer screen. Make copies at the furthest machine. Also, if you are stuck in meetings, get up and walk around. You might look crazy at first, but just let them know you are working towards a goal. It shouldn't be a problem.
