Get More Active At Work

HOW YOU CAN BOOST YOUR ACTIVITY AT WORK

• Make a few extra trips to the water fountain – good for hydration, too

• Set your alarm or use a personal fitness band to remind you to move every 30 minutes

• Get up and talk to colleagues rather than sending an email

• Stand up and wander around for that phone-call

• How about a walking or standing meeting? It is supposed to help the creative juices flow and avoids those painfully long conferences.

• Consider using a standing or treadmill desk – studies show they can help

• If you can get outside, even better… fresh air leads to fresh ideas and boosts vitamin D.

• When you are sitting, adjust chairs to keep you supported and upright

• Alter screen height and brightness to suit you. A poorly positioned keyboard and mouse can contribute to wrist, arm, shoulder and neck pain, so make sure your keyboard and mouse are not too far away from you.
