Workout.
I do.
I force myself to drink lots of water so I have to constantly go pee or else I am stuck at my desk for hours @ a time.
Annnddd every time I pee I do a set of 20 body weight squats or lunges or knees to elbows.
Yes, people are wondering why I go so much and when they ask I tell them
Am I the only one?

I do the same thing! In the bathroom at least once an hour with all the water. I do some body weight squats or wall push ups or something like that. I know it doesn't really burn a lot of calories, but it adds up and it gets me moving and re-energized from sitting at my desk.0

I know and I hate being stuck at my desk... My boss finally asked me if I had a problem and I told her what I was doing and now she does the same thing0

I definitely take every advantage I get to get up from my desk and go to the restroom or refill my water bottle, to break up the sitting time. In the bathroom I am tempted to try do to pull-ups on the stall dividers but I'm afraid I'd bring the whole thing down, assuming I even had the upper body strength.0

Oh my goodness, ME TOO!!! I also try to do the stairs which are three flights any time I fax something (which is often). I try to get exercise in as much as possible. So glad I am not the only one.0
-
Lol, me too. I drink so much water at work that I am going at least 5 times per 8-9 hour day and everytime I go I do 6 flights of stairs. And lately I have added in sets of 15 modified push-ups that I can do against the stair rail each time I go up a floor!0

This is a great idea, I'm going to give it a try tomorrow, I'm always in the loo.
Thank you for the tip.0 -
I keep my bathroom exercise to just my wrist and forearms.0

It's good stuff! I try to get to work early so I can do 3 laps around the halls which is half a mile and then I do 3 more laps before leaving...
Always make sure you lock the door if you can because when people walk in and see this they freak out with sheer awkwardness.0 -
I usually take my phone and creep on Facebook. I use it as "me" time once an hour since I soak up water like a sponge.0
-
You're not alone! I do this all the time. Squats, pushups (not on the dirty floor but on the counter) calf raises, leg lifts and lunges! I still go home and get a proper heavy weighted workout in but every little bit helps!0
-
I do the same thing. And walk to the furthest bathroom. Or I have a service dog so I'll walk him around the building twice a day or take "smoke" breaks. Hey I figure if the smokers get 10 minute paid breaks every hour so should I to exercise and get healthy. I alternate between wall push-ups and body weight squats and drink a lot of water at work too.0

Sounds messy. If it's a stall activity, I will play some Subway Surfer, if it's a urinal acitivity I just look at myself in the shiny metal parts of it, and it makes it like a fun house for your special spot.0

Yay! I thought it was just me!!!! Luckily I work in a small, friendly office, because I've decided what type of exercise I'll be doing in their area!!! the programmers' cubical? Dips, of course! And pushups against the admin assistant's desk... the boss's office is sit ups0
