Simple Office Exercise to Break the Sedentary Life
Working in an office
with the job you truly love maybe enjoyable for some, but it could also lead to
a sedentary lifestyle. You get stuck at the office, sitting in front of the
computer all day and draining you of all the motivation to drag yourself off for
some physical activities afterwards.
Well if you don’t start now, you might
realize too late that sitting can kill you slowly with lifestyle diseases
caused by living a passive, unhealthy and sedentary life.
There are simple
exercises that you can do at the office safely and without affecting your work
or your officemates. Here are some suggestions –
Wander
Take a walk to a nearby
park during your lunch hour and get some fresh air. It will be a good chance
for you to stretch your leg muscles and get your mind off your work for a bit.
Take
the Stairs
Resist taking the
elevator and race up the stairs for some early morning cardio work out to start
your day right. It may be quite a struggle but it can definitely help define
your legs and your bottoms!
Keep
A Weight On Your Desk
Keep a small weight on
your desk aside from a stapler or that obligatory red staple. While reading
reports or correspondence, pick up the weight and tone your arms.
Aside from these simple
exercises, you might also start eating healthy and resist the temptation of
snacking during working hours. Soon you will feel the benefits of these simple
changes and become even more productive at work.

Wow, I love the LED shower head! I want to have one like that in my bathroom. The changing colors is so cool!
ReplyDeleteI guess its because it's pretty rare for people to put more money in the bathroom as it's not where mostly everyone hangs out...but those suggestions and adds-on are quite very sophisticated too i love the waterfall sink.
ReplyDeleteI also get rid of most of my things/dress that haven't been used for 6 months. If I have lived for the past months without using them, then it's not so important after all. it feels liberating to get rid of clutters:)
ReplyDeleteThe story seems interesting. We were planning to catch the movie last December but my friends got problems in schedule so we didn't push through. Maybe I'll just read about it online.
ReplyDeleteSeems interesting to read, I'll recommend this to the children here at home.
ReplyDeleteIjust saw this title on the banners of the cinema but never had the chance to watch it .. neither reading its novel form .. i think i need to find a copy .. story seems similar to Hunger Games with a different situation and location ...
ReplyDeleteOh... i like that kind of shower head actually! I wish to get one on my new home soon! :D

I usually give our old stuff to neighbors or relatives. I'm not the type of person who keep old stuff for sentimental reasons unless they are really useful and from special friends.
ReplyDeleteoh, love those shower head and waterfall tap, they would be very nice changes to our bathroom :)
ReplyDeletePrioritizing- that's what they say. But for some reason, I want my space - all of it, to be well appointed. Besides, the bathroom (powder room or guest bath) is where your guests goes, or if you only have one in the house, guests will eventually use it, so it's just but right to pay attention to it too and equip it with equally nice fittings.

The LED shower heads are so pretty! Someone would have to force me to step out of the shower, hahaha!

Enders game looks really interesting sci fi book and good for your son to be hooked on reading at a young age.
ReplyDeleteI agree with getting rid of junk and memorabilia. I still do have a few things that I've held on to but I keep them to one multibox per family member. If it can't fit in the box, something has to be thrown out. :-)

Number three is my husband's worse trait lol. I usually get rid of stuff but hubby hold on to things.
ReplyDeleteI love the shower, and backlit mirror if I have a big bathroom maybe I will try to save and buy those.

Wow, reading sci fi novel at an early age will hone your son into a good writer when he grows up. I'm sure he likes to watch sci fi movies too :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so true - being in the office - we all tend to just sit - then the elevator is there - we suffer and have a hard time with our health too - thus walking, walking - taking the stairs will always be good and healthy
ReplyDeleteI agree! Sitting infront of the computer 8 hours or so each day is totally draining. Following those exercise you mentioned above would be beneficial.
