No matter where you are or where you go, there is an opportunity to incorporate some exercise in your day!!
I try to do small sets of exercises throughout my workday. At my desk, I use water bottles as weights for arm exercises. On bathroom breaks, I do leg exercises (lunges, calf raises, squats). Before my shower, I squeeze in some floor exercises (push-ups, crunches, etc). Before I know it, I've completed my strength training list for the day! 244
