Personal Trainer Recommended 4 Simple and Effective Exercises for Workout in Office

What if someone tells you that you can have a good workout session in your office while you are in your cubicle? Really! How? You are expected to ask this question especially when you have a fitness goal to achieve, but you can’t because you have to be sedentary throughout the working day except tea and lunch break.

When you are on a desk job, your boss can snatch one or two hours of your day apart from your official working hours. You can hit the gym on weekends which is way less than enough. Today we can save our body from effects of our sedentary lifestyle with chair aerobics or chair yoga. There are some exercises for people who want to have a workout session in office. Use these tips daily recommended by celebrity personal trainer in NYC, soon you will be in perfect shape.

Dips at Your Desk

Stand with your face in the opposite direction of the desk. Now place your hands on the desk with a reasonable gap between your back and the desk. Now bend your arms and move downwards till your arms form an L shape. Now move your body upwards and repeat the same. You can start with two sets of ten. Remember, office chairs are not strong enough to hold your weight.

Desk Push Ups

This is just like desk dips. The only difference is, this time, you are facing the desk. Place your hands on the desk with a significant gap between your legs and legs of the desk. Now move your body forward and backwards in a push-up motion. Again, start with two sets of ten. And, don’t use the chair.

Pivot Your Chair 

     

This time, use the chair. Most of the office chairs have the option of spinning. Hold the desk firmly with both hands and raise your legs keeping knees together. While holding the table, spin the chair side by side keeping your head and back straight. Only the lower part (below the waist) of your body should move.

Leg Swings and Knee Raises

Adjust the chair to its lowest height. Now raise your one leg up and then drop it down. Now switch to other leg and repeat the same. You can start twenty swings per leg. Two sets of twenty are enough. 

Bring knees together and bend your legs at knees with thighs parallel to the ground. Now raise both knees as high as you can. Keep your knees there for 15 to 20 seconds and then drop your legs. Two sets of five are enough.

  

These exercises recommended by fitness trainer are really very fruitful for office goers. However, you should try to reserve one or one and a half hour out of your busy schedule to workout with a personal trainer in NYC. You can also join an online personal fitness training program.
