Exercising At Your Desk

There are many desk exercises to choose from, it’s up to you to choose which methods would work with your busy schedule and limitation of space. I try to stay active and healthy at work, as desk exercises I feel are the best way because it requires you to set up or go to a remote place. Instead you can simply preform these exercises by using an exercise ball for desk chair.

What are your favorite exercises to do at work, while staying at your desk? Here are some that I enjoy:

       Seat Squat: this exercise is simply done by your rear facing the chair, feet hip width apart, hold your arms straight ahead of you and slowly bend your knees as you are about to sit in the chair  (works legs and gluts)

 Desk Pushup: this is done by facing your desk, hands should be width apart, keep legs and back in a straight line and do pushups against desk (works arms and shoulders)
 

Chair Dip: this is done by sitting at your desk and placing hands on the armrests, lift your feet a few inches from the ground and use your stomach muscles to raise your body above the chair (works arms and core)
