Try setting an hourly reminder on your phone, for a time that coordinates right into your hour. Also, try to clock 200 to 300 steps every hour on the hour. Not only will this counter the tightness of sitting but contribute to your total step count without even thinking about it!

If you need to make phone calls, try to set them up during a walk! Every few minutes resourcefully walking around your room or in the office corridor, will add to your step count.

A simple trick that many people skip, take the stairs when possible vs the escalator. Climbing the stairs elevates your heart rate, tones your legs, and gives you immediate calorie burn.

After lunch, resist the urge to scroll on your phone and instead take a 10-minute walk, including up stairs if time and space allow. It will aid digestion, get your blood flowing, help you process your food, and also potentially burn a few post-meal calories.

you can be active throughout your work day by getting up often, using the stairs, and looking for movement every hour. You can easily work towards 10K daily steps in this manner while also supporting equivalent weight loss and energy during the work day!
