Tips to Get Fit at Work

Work days have their challenges from deadlines to impromptu meetings; however, staying fit shouldn't be one of them. The workplace is full of ways to incorporate calorie burning activities that are easiest enough to do in pumps or a tie

Work That Core

Office jobs have their challenges when it comes to mobility. While desk jobs don't allow for a lot of movement there are still ways you can exercise. Sit on a stability ball instead of your office chair for an hour in the afternoon to give your abs and posture a workout. If you drop your pen, do a crunch instead of bending over to pick it up.

Lose The Technology

While it seems impossible to get along without your blackberry or outlook a more traditional form of communication can shed calories. By simply walking to your co-workers desk at a moderate pace you can burn up to 255 lbs per hour, all the while getting a break from that computer screen.

Move It

The majority of us have an office job, which means lots of sitting down - allow your legs to move while they have a chance and take the stairs instead of the elevator. While parking can be a hassle in itself, stop searching for the closest parking space and make it worthwhile. Not only will you save time, but you can burn extra calories by making these small healthy choices.
