HOW TO STAY FIT WHILE AT WORK

It is a well-known fact that regular physical exercise together with a nourishing and healthy diet is a must for healthy living.

Physical exercise has huge health benefits and can significantly reduce the risk of diseases, especially cardiac diseases, improve metabolism, and strengthen your bones.

In modern times, job-related constraints and the changing structure of society has contributed greatly to sedentary lifestyles that restrict physical activity. In such a situation any opportunity for movement should be viewed with approval rather than be considered as a difficulty.

What You Need:

At least 30 minutes of physical activity of moderate intensity on as many days as possible, preferably on all days.

       You can break it down into three stretches of 10 minutes each & spread it over the day

       To make it easier, you can use whatever you typically do in the course of your daily activities to carry out these exercises.

• Walk at least some distance on your way to work.
• Avoid elevators & use stairs instead.
• You can do neck rolls & arm raises while sitting on your desk.
• Jog or skip while watching T.V.
• Set the morning alarm 10 minutes early & do some stretching exercises.
• Take a brisk walk after lunch.

WRITE DOWN YOUR FITNESS GOALS:

• Short term goals must be modest – to include small changes in lifestyle
• Long term goals are what you yourself one year later.
• Start slowly & progress each week from mild to moderate to vigorous.

CHANGE YOUR EATING HABITS:

• DO NOT keep unhealthy snacks on hand at your desk so as to avoid mindless snacking while working.
• Include whole grains, low-fat dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and nuts in your diet.

CATCH UP WITH THE ZZZ’s:

Research has revealed that those who sleep less tend to be overweight.

BE CONTENT AT WORK:

• Keep personal problems personal
• Make your office space your own – make yourself comfortable.

• Try to resolve conflicts & focus on the positives.

Be Positive

YOU CAN’T CHANGE OTHERS,

YOU CAN ONLY CHANGE THE WAY YOU REACT TO THEM.

Committing to a healthier lifestyle means

-   Becoming more active

-   Eating Nutritious food

-   Making better life choices

Investing time in health and fitness is a lot like maintaining a savings account – there are substantial gains but only over a period of time.
