Surprising Ways To Work Exercise Into Your Day

Only Fill It Halfway

Everyone needs to stay hydrated to avoid splitting headaches, a rapid heartbeat, dry skin, sleepiness, and the other consequences that come with dehydration. The average recommendation is eight glasses of water a day, but individuals may even need more if it’s particularly hot out or they have been exercising. Regardless, staying hydrated still opens up another opportunity to add exercise to a long work day, even for those working desk jobs. Keep a water bottle on your desk, but only ever fill it up halfway. This forces you to get up from your desk and walk to refill the water bottle more often. Increase the exercise even more and heed the previous tip of going the distance and walk to the water source, such as a cooler, fountain, or kitchen that is the farthest from your desk.

No matter how busy you are, there is always time in your day to fit in some exercise. It may just take some creativity sometimes!
