Working professionals may find less time to engage in exercises due to their tight schedules. Hence, exercising from the office seems an alternative to being active and healthy.
Also, exercising from the office boosts your mood, energizes you, and increases your productivity. So, let’s check out these exercises that you can do from your office.
Walking to work: If your office is near your home, try walking to work instead of taking a bike. This not only benefits your health but also benefits the environment and saves you money.
Using stairs: Try to use stairs instead of elevators to keep your body and muscles active after hours of sitting and inactivity.
Calf raises: Start with standing on your feet with your hands at your side. Then slowly stand on your toes, go back down again, and repeat the movements.
Lunges: Stand with your legs at a shoulder-width distance. Then extend one leg forward and another to the back. Bend your front leg’s knee at 90 degrees, as you move forward, with your knee touching the ground.
Chair dips: Take a stable chair and place your hand on it from your backside. Place your legs in front of you and start pushing yourself up and down while resting the weight on the chair.
High knees: Start with a standing position and move your knees high repeatedly for an energetic burst of cardio.
Besides the above try to move around the office in your free time as much as possible; keep your back straight to avoid back pain; and store weights at your desk to do a quick miniature workout.
