Desk Exercises I
WORKOUT SEQUENCE
For individuals who spend prolonged periods sitting at a desk or remaining stationary, we have designed a gentle yet effective workout to help you re-energize and get your body moving again:
- Desk Butt Kicks – 10 repetitions
- Desk Ankle Circles – 10 repetitions
- Desk Calf Raises – 10 repetitions
- Desk Chair Squats – 10 repetitions
- Desk Fit Stability Ball Exercise
Repeat each set two times, completing a total of 10 sets for each movement and performing two full repetitions of the entire sequence. Aim to complete this workout 2-3 times per week.
Key Terms:
Sets: Refers to the number of times you will repeat a specific exercise for the designated number of repetitions.
For example, you perform 10 desk butt kicks, then rest for 30-60 seconds (that constitutes one set). After resting, proceed to perform 10 desk ankle circles, followed by another rest. The repetition cycle begins when you restart the workout sequence from the first movement.
Incorporate this workout into your routine to counteract the effects of prolonged sitting and enhance your overall well-being. Remember, consistency is key to achieving optimal results.
