Working day exercises

Hi

I expect that there is something like this already. If so, please could you point me in the direction of suggested exercises you can do when working at home, say a few mins every hour or two as you get up from your desk.

I think I am more likely to do some in short bursts than if I have to workout for 30 or 45mins by myself.

Thanks

Also just thought if this: if you like strengths workouts with dumbbells, I do this one often in the morning healthunlocked.com/strength...

It uses the free FitOn app, and they have many short follow along workouts.

And if you look at our folders, you probably can find quite a few workouts: healthunlocked.com/strength...

As another idea, I do have workout cards, available for dumbbels or resistance band or yoga, etc. they also give me a quick way to do a few poses or movements whenever I want.

Finding what works for you is half the fun, so well done for exploring this!

Let us know if you find something that works for you!

My go-to exercise channel on YouTube is Lucy Wyndham Read. She has lots of videos and 'shorts' of varying lengths - 'shorts' are just a few minutes of 'exercise snacks', plus there's lots of videos of exercise routines lasting from 5 minutes to 30 minutes long. Most are all standing (ie no need to get down on the floor) and don't require any equipment.
