Can’t seem to squeeze in exercise during corona? Fake commute every morning!

I mentioned this in an other post, but since so many people liked the idea I thought I would share it in a seperate post.

Now that so many of us are working from home incidental exercise has been cut out of our daily routines. For many of us we walked to the train each morning to get to work, or walked to the bus or even walked to work. Now that work is mostly at home this seemingly insignificant exercise has been lost, but no exercise is ever insignificant and it adds up.

The solution: fake commute to work every morning and make it part of your routine.

Everyday before I sit down at my desk I take a 30-40min walk around the park and listen to my audiobook and treat myself to a coffee. This way I can start my day with some exercise and start my day right by getting in the mindset of work. I find that it helps me clear my head, mentally prepare and gives me a bit of energy to kickstart the day.

If you dislike walking, or cannot seem to find the time of day to do it I recommend fake commuting since it is a routine you are already used to, and you are just adding it back into your life again.
