Being active while Working from home

Since starting to work from home, I’ve made a slight change to my routine that has actually been helping out a ton.

I realized that while I’m at work, there were a lot periods where I’d be waiting for something to load on my computer. Waiting for meetings to start, lots of time listening to others in virtual/phone meetings, etc. where I would just grab my phone and browse social media, check email, etc. generally just sit there and wait. Now that I’m at home, I’ve since made it a habit that whenever any situation like this happens, I take a few minutes to do some pushups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, etc. I also take breaks every hour, just a few minutes, to get away from the computer and do the same. I can usually get in 100 of each a day now. Just over the last few weeks my endurance has skyrocketed. Prior to doing this I could only do a few pushups before getting too tired/sore. They’ve already my become immensely easier to do and my mobility in general is improving by a lot! I still do my regular exercise routines, but throwing in these extra, small bursts have made a tremendous difference. As much as I can’t wait for things to get back to normal for everyone, and I can go back to the office, I have to say I’ll miss finding these times to just get in a little extra activity than normal.

Then again I might just decide why not and do some pushups in front of coworkers anyway when this is all over lol.
