So about a year ago I bought a treadmill. More specifically, a walking pad from Lifespan fitness. This thing is literally just a mat that folds out on the floor & goes up to about 6 km/hr. I have easily slid it under my normal writing desk, placed my laptop on two boxes, and boom! Walking desk.
Ever since then, whenever I am using my computer, I am walking at 2 km/hr. This sounds pretty slow but the key is it is sustainable. Now all my sedentary activity: emails, studying, watching Netflix... has been converted to (slow) walking! I use this thing for at least a couple of hours every day. When I am cooped up inside with nothing better do to, heaps more. This has not only boosted my metabolism, but has left me feeling more energetic! Now that my legs have adjusted I don't even notice I'm exercising anymore. It's actually kind of fun.
I'd love to know, how have you incorporated more exercise into your daily routine?
EDIT: I should also mention I am walking while typing this, lol.
