Which is why I’m all for the workplace workout.
Go ahead and take your federally mandated breaks and use them to fit your workout in.
Stand tall in front of a chair with your feet shoulder-width apart, your weight in your heels.
Cross your arms over your chest, pointing your elbows up in front of you.
double-check your weight remains in your heels and your chest remains lifted as you sit back.
This helps keep your knees from jutting in front of your toes as you squat down into the chair.
Kneel in front of a sturdy chair, facing away from it.
It’s important to keep your spine straight and aligned throughout the decline pushup.
If this bang out of decline pushup is too challenging, try a modified pushup instead.
Stand facing the chair, then bend forward to place your hands on the chair seat.
ensure your shoulders are positioned directly over your palms.
Stand a foot or two in front of your chair, facing away, with your feet shoulder-distance apart.
Tighten your core and shift your weight to your right leg.
Check your balance and check that your hips are aligned.
Your weight should be centered over your right heel.
Perform 10 to 12 repetitions on one side before switching legs.
Aim to perform two to three sets per side.
Grip the front of your chair by placing your hands just to the outside of your hips.
Shift your weight forward slightly so your glutes are positioned in front of the chair.
Stand facing your chair, your feet hip-distance apart.
Carefully step back down again, leading with your right foot.
Extend your arms along your sides, your palms down.
Steady yourself using your palms and heels.
From this position, steadily lower your glutes toward the ground, stopping just before they touch down.
Then press your hips straight up again, returning to the starting position.
Aim to do two to three sets of 15 to 20 repetitions.
Of course, this is all done without using assistance from the floor.
