Tips for Wokring out at work?

Posts: 10
I spend a great deal of my time at work and thankfully I have a standing job where I can pace around for a bit of exercise. But I would love some tips or ideas on something else I can do (that's do-able at work, I can't exactly do squats without my bosses wondering what's wrong with me)
Should I get those ankle weights?
Any feedback is appreciated!

always have socks and shoes underneath your desk for a walk.
get some office mates to count on walking everyday at noon.
if one person can't make it, still go. the walk bus leaves at noon.0 -
I do crunches and core excersizes during my lunch then I walk around the building as fast as I can and walk up and down the stairs all over the building. This is on the days I can't get to the gym.0

I do chair dips, desk push-ups (incline push ups, hands on desk), as well as squats and lunges.0

Calf raises are a good standing exercise. While walking around try to walk quicker than you would usually. Squats in the bathroom. Push-ups against your workbench.
Also concentrating on standing up straight and holding your abs and back muscles for correct posture will be good for you. Push your shoulders down and squeeze your shoulder blades together.0 -
When I have telephone meetings, I sometimes take them on my mobile (using earphones with a built-in microphone) and go for a walk. I hit "mute" when I'm not talking so I can walk fast enough to get my heart rate up a bit without subjecting everyone to heavy breathing.0
