Put the skip back in your step by exercising at work! Including low-intensity exercises and invigorating stretches that can leave you feeling energetic and revitalized, ready to take on whatever life throws your way!
So, button up your blazer and adjust your gorgeous work shoes, and let’s get going!
AMAZING BENEFITS OF EXERCISING THROUGHOUT THE DAY
Once you start exercising and stretching while at work, it’s hard to stop! It can be beneficial for your body and mind to get up once every hour or so and take a mental and physical break. This gives your eyes a break from your notepad or computer screen, your body a chance to stretch out, and your brain a break from all the hard work you’ve been doing!
Not to mention that working out throughout the day will help you burn more calories. Sure, it might not be as many as when you’re in high-intensity workout session, but it’s still more calories than you would have burned sitting at your desk!
