12 Exercises You Could Do At Work: Fitness by health22: 3:42pm On Jul 12, 2017
The Post’s infographics department tested 12 exercises for a week to see which ones real people could incorporate into a workday. These moves were recommended by experts whose jobs involve studying motion, preventing obesity and generally getting people off their duffs.

Raise the roof (20 reps) (see video clip here http://www.healinghealthteas.com/12-exercises-work-workout/

While marching in place, push toward the ceiling with your palms up and thumbs almost touching your shoulders. Make it harder by holding water bottles.

Our thoughts:

Pro: One person found it “comforting” to dust off a 1990s dance move.

Con: Brief panic while you try to remember if you shaved your armpits.

Triceps kick (20 reps)

While marching in place, bend at the hips, about 45 degrees. Bend your elbows, then extend them behind you as if you are lifting weights.

Our thoughts:

Pro: Loosens your upper body.

Con: Awkward-looking. Several people accidentally whacked things behind them.

The Hulk (20 reps)

Keep marching and leaning. With your elbows bent and fists together in front, move your arms back like wings. Try to touch your shoulder blades together.

Our thoughts:

Pro: Some people make funny sound effects.

Con: Draws attention to the chest area.

Hamstring curl (20 reps)

Bend arms at the elbow. Bring one foot up toward your rear end while straightening your arms so that your hands are down when your foot is up.

Our thoughts:

Pro: Not terribly noticeable.

Con: Requires caution to avoid... http://www.healinghealthteas.com/12-exercises-work-workout/
