If anyone still wants to join up for a little extra motivation, please do! It's not like missing out on the first week makes the rest of the challenge any less valuable. Here's the link, if you're interested: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14UwiJo2Y6wvvgB6XDif6qBhQ3KKe18xTg5elUPw4MLo/edit#gid=733661354
This week's challenge is to try five of the exercises listed here: http://greatist.com/fitness/deskercise-33-ways-exercise-work
Post here to share which exercises you tried and what you think of them. Maybe you'll find something you'd like to incorporate into your daily routine!

Today I did
The Stair Master
The Cubicle Wanderer
The Seated Leg Raiser
The Silent Seat Squeeze
The Shoulder Shrug
I found the whole idea pretty interesting. I am not sure how I feel about the ones I did (some are just things I do anyways), but it did make me think about what I could do at work to improve my level of activity.0 -

Norah, this is a great challenge!!
I did:
The Silent (but deadly) Seat Squeeze
The Secret Handshake
The Namaste
The Stapler Curl
The Nape Shaper
I'll definitely print this out and use it, especially right now while I'm still in limited mobility mode.
And yes, Nancy, we expect you to squeeze your seat too!

I did:
The Mover and Shaker (I actually did it standing up though. Michael had some music on so I jumped up and started dancing. He just laughed)
The Wall (Street) Sit (I didn't quite it where my thighs were parallel to the floor but I did get farther every time I did it)
The Patient Printer (this is an easy one to do while I'm cooking or doing dishes)
The Silent Seat Squeeze (did this one while watching tv)
The Seated Leg Raiser (another one that's easy to do while watching tv)
The Stapler Curl (another great one for tv viewing)
The Shoulder Shrug (again tv viewing)
The Pinstripe Push-Up (didn't quite get all the way to the wall without falling into the wall but I'm working on it)
I know I did more than 5 but I was having so much fun trying the different ones and I couldn't choose.0
