Exercise breaks, that is.

Incorporate five 5-10 minute exercise breaks in your day. Need ideas?

• Skip the elevator and take the stairs.
• Walk around the block when you get the mail.
• Stretch your neck – look up/down, look left/right, ear to shoulder.
• Shoulder rolls, forward and back.
• Squeeze your bum and hold for 10 seconds. Release for 5 seconds. Repeat for 5 minutes.
• Kegels for the women.
• Point and flex your feet, then circle your feet in each direction.
• Squats or calf raises when you’re filing or at the copier.
• Crunch your abs.
