Office Exercises

Today I want to share a few simple exercises you can do at home or in your office.

If you work a typical 9-5 day, you can do a lot for your health with a simple 2-minute exercise routine every hour, on the hour -- lunch excepted!

So, try this. Before you start your daily grind at your job, do two minutes of exercise, and then repeat every hour until lunch. Ditto for every hour after lunch.

Here are some simple exercises to include in your routine:
  • go up and down a staircase for two minutes, if one is available
  • drop to the floor and do pushups and variations for two minutes
  • try 120 seconds worth of forward, reverse, or walking lunges
  • do a minute or two of bodyweight squats
The above list is hardly comprehensive, but it will get you started.

If you want to learn more on this topic, check out our collection of abdominal exercise articles.
