MysticTrail+FollowDesk Workouts That Don’t SuckIf you’re stuck at your desk all day, I feel you. I used to think sitting meant zero movement, but you can actually sneak in some solid exercise right at your computer. 🔸 Try seated jumping jacks: Sit tall, open your legs and reach your arms overhead. Do 30 quick reps to get your blood moving. 🔸 Chair press-ups: Sit on the edge, hands on the seat, and push yourself up a few inches. Great for your arms and shoulders. 🔸 Leg extensions: Straighten one leg at a time, hold for a second, then switch. Bonus points if you do both legs at once for a core burn. 🔸 Glute squeezes: Just clench your butt muscles for 30 seconds. No one will even notice, but your glutes will thank you. And don’t forget to stand up and stretch every hour. Little moves add up, even on busy days. #DeskWorkout #StayActive #OfficeFitness #Health #Fitness30Share
