Desk Workout You Can Do While On The Job

Simple workout you can do while stuck at your cubicle, and all you need is your body and a chair.  I would recommend doing a circuit of these exercises (going from one to the next with minimal to no rest) to get a great cardiovascular effect.  Perform the circuit 3 times.  15 minutes of this twice a day can improve how you feel and benefit overall health.  If the full circuit is too much, at least try to pick a few exercises of your choice and complete those.  If this gets too easy, increase repetitions or  try changing up the tempo of the repetitions.

• Bicycle Kicks – As many as possible in 30 to 60 seconds for each direction.

• Lower Chest Push-ups -5 to 15 repetitions

• Upper Chest Push-ups -5 to 15 repetitions

• Flat Chest Push-ups – 5 to 15 repetitions

• Lunges – 5 each leg

• Lateral Lunges – 5 each leg

• Chair Lunge – 5 each leg

• Dips – 5 to 10 reps

• Hindu Squat – 10 reps

• Hindu Push-up – 5 reps

• Plank Circuit – 30 seconds each side
