    Go for walks on your breaks or lunch.

    If your able to stand, take a few mins. and do some squats or lunges at your desk. Or if you have a swivel chair, rotate on it. At lunch or break, walk the stairs or go outside. hope this helps.

    Walk at lunch. Religiously. I have done that and walked my dog most days since August and lost 36 pounds. I've done a few (less than 10) Zumba classes since Thanksgiving as my schedule permits and a couple of long hikes when the weather was still warm and my schedule permitted. Sometimes, if I am feeling really stressed or antsy, I'll go into the stairwell on break and do squats and wall push-ups, but that's not even once a week.

    Yeah all this stuff above. Also Purchase an exercise ball, go to work with it, take your chair you usually sit on, throw it at the person you hate most, place exercise ball where the chair once was, sit on it, do work. To be more proactive you can google plenty of exercises you can do while on that ball and still do your job effectively.
