A strategy to fit more movement in your day

In August, I took a job for the first time in 15 years that has me sitting behind a desk and computer for eight or more hours Monday through Friday. I went from being a fitness instructor/personal trainer and English teacher, where I stood and walked around the classroom, to my desk job in marketing and communications.

The hours of sitting added a few more pounds to my body, and left me sendentary for most of the
day.  So, I started implementing bits of activity here and there throughout the day. Every hour or two, I take a quick 3-5 minute walk in my office building. I bought a fitness tracker to track my daily steps. I, also, brought in a fitness ball from home to my work, which I alternate with my desk chair. But after a 15 year lifestyle of constant movements and daily double workouts, my body needed more.

So, I came up with another strategy to get me to move more!  Watch this video to check out how I now incorporate more movement in my day.

This strategy works for anyone behind a desk all day, and even  if you're not, it's a great way to move more, and get the blood flowing!! Let me know if you incorporate this strategy into your day! I would love to hear from you!! I'm always listening.
