Office Exercises

If there is one thing that I do not like about my job it is the fact that I have to spend so much time at a desk. I would much rather be hanging out with students. But most of the time I am working on the weekend stuff or logistical crud, so I am on my butt most of the day. So this post is for all of those office workers out there that want to stay in shape. Here are some diagrams of some exercises that will help. So go ahead and get buff. I believe in you.


Office Tips:
• Take mini-walks - Walk during coffee breaks. Arrange a walk-and-talk instead of a sit-and-talk meeting.
• Climb stairs Walk at least some of the distance up or down in office buildings.
• Park and walk - Park farther away from the office (or the store when shopping), instead of trying to get as close as possible.
• Walk on your lunch break - You’ll return refreshed. Wear comfortable shoes.
• Move while on the phone - Stand and move around while talking on the phone. Do some stretches.
• Swing your arms, turn your neck, or wiggle your toes — any kind of movement helps.

Okay, so I haven't even read this post yet, but the instant I say the title "Office Exercises" I started laughing out loud.

Wow. Thanks for the laugh :)

Darn...I usually check my comments for spelling errors...I meant to say, "saw the title" not "say the title".

Now I feel better.
