    Like a lot of people I'm at a desk 8-10 hours a day. On top of that I have an hour commute both ways, so 12 hours a day before watching Game of Thrones or Walking Dead.

    I'm looking for tips/tricks to stay fit at the office.

    Things I've done so far
    -I bought a sit/stand desk, and a wobble board
    -Go on walks when I can
    -"car crunches"

    Also, has anyone tried the bicycle desks? Under-desk Elliptical? Other random things people are trying to sell to us office peeps?

    What is a wobble board?

    I have a standing/sitting adjustable desk as well. Plus I have a gym with shower/locker room in my office so I workout almost every day at lunch. But I am very interested in anything else I can do...

    A wobble board makes you.... wobble. haha. They have all kinds https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=wobble board

    You can do simple bodyweight exercises at your desk-push ups, squats, tricep dips, step ups, etc.
