Excercising ideas at the office

StacieAAdams · October 2013

Hi everyone!
I have an office job and a girl I work with and I try to get up every hour, on the 1/2 hour, and do something to keep moving throughout the day. We do excercises such as squats, lunges, jumping jacks, wall push-ups, wall sits, walk the stairs, plank, etc. Does anyone have any other ideas or things to do at the office to stay moving?
Thanks!!!

I do some sort of exercise every time I go to the bathroom. By the end of the day (I work 7a-5p), I will normally do between 100-150 squats, lunges, wall push-ups, etc. Makes an amazing difference in how I feel every day. Metabolic boost for the day, too! My only recommendation is to bring a resistance band to work to get in some more strength training. You can do a lot either standing or sitting and it keeps things interesting. I play with it when I'm on the phone sometimes. The more, the merrier!

There's an auditorium on our second floor of our building. I take several walks a day in the auditorium, walking up and down the aisles. I put in between 1-2 miles a day doing that split into 3-4 sessions.

Take stairs instead of elevator

I boogie on the elevator (when I'm alone) --- could take stairs, but have a bum knee I'm protecting.

I turn on YouTube fitness/dance videos and close my office door for brief fitness blasts.

:drinker:
