1

Take the stairs

Almost every office has stairs, ideal for keeping your legs active.

2

Walk to a colleague

Email, phone, WhatsApp, ditch it all and walk over to your colleague.

3

Swing your legs

Stand on one leg and gently swing your other leg back and forth.

4

Walk during your break

You often see them, people walking during their break. Gather some colleagues and take a stroll during lunch.

5

Take on some tasks

As the boss of printer paper, Cup-A-Soup sachets and coffee rounds, you'll definitely stay active.

6

Play foot alphabet

Form the alphabet on the floor with your feet. Use one foot first, then the other.

7

Make circles with your arms

Hold your arms out to your sides, parallel to the floor, and make small circles. If it's easy, make slightly larger circles.

8

Make calls standing up

Do you have a (wireless) headset? Stand up while on the phone and walk around if the headset is wireless.

9

Tidy your workspace

The easiest way to keep moving and keep your workspace tidy.

10

Tighten your muscles

Tighten your glutes, lift your heels, shrug your shoulders, broaden/tighten your chest. Try to relax sufficiently in between.

Bonus

Office chair squat

Lower yourself until your bottom touches the seat of your chair. As soon as you feel it, stand back up straight.
