Exercise to do at Your Desk: Fit Over 50

October 21, 2020 by Alicia Jones

Looking for  exercise to do at your desk? Then you’re in luck, because during today’s workout, you won’t need to leave your desk at all.

This exercise routine tones the entire body in 9 quick minutes. You’ll stand for some moves in order to increase blood flow and relieve the back from desk sitting. Then, you’ll sit for others, making sure you tone the upper body with small movements that are perfect for minimal office space.

To make this workout a new habit, stick a set of weights under or on your desk. Then, the next time you take a break, pull them out and turn on this 9 minute workout.

Why I Created Exercise to Do at Your Desk?

We’re living in interesting times.

A huge pandemic has forced us all to hunker down and stay inside.

For those now working from home, productivity levels are reported to have surged by up to 47%

I think I know why…

The last divide between the work and home balance has disappeared.

You were busy before, but now you may barely leave the desk:

  • No need to walk to the car and drive home
  • No need to go to the local restaurant for your afternoon lunch
  • No need to leave the computer or the desk.

According to a recent pandemic report, those that weren’t active before COVID have become even less active.

Which puts many further away from their goals of achieving fit over 50.

The fix is simple: it’s time to create new healthy workout habits that slip easily into this new way of life. Easy exercise you can do at your desk to start to enhance your energy and strength, and bring motivation and excitement to get up and get moving again.

Once your motivation is high,  add on this quick warm up before you start your desk exercise. This creates a simple add on to your workout.
