  • Set an alarm to go off every hour to remind you to stand up and move around.
  • Use the restroom on another floor and take the stairs
  • Use a pedometer and keep track of how many steps you take. Aim for 6,000 to 10,000 steps a day.
  • Leave something important in your car (your lunch, your briefcase, etc.) so you have to run out to get it (and take the stairs)
  • Deliver documents or messages to co-workers in person rather than by email Go to the mall for lunch and park on the opposite end of the food court.
  • Get a headset for your phone so you can move around while you talk
  • If you have your own office, consider keeping a resistance band, ankle weights and even a couple of sets of dumbbells in your desk drawer. You can squeeze in some quick upper body exercises while you're on the phone.
  • Your boss may not have considered how much more productive his or her employees would be with a little exercise. If you can, encourage your boss to: Work with local gyms to provide membership discounts for employees Work with local personal trainers to provide monthly seminars or free body fat testing for employees. Some trainers will even do this for free Set up daily or weekly walks during lunch or after work Give you extra breaks during the day to take quick walks Be active. If the boss exercise, employees will take their own health more seriously
