God bless all you people who have time to exercise.
My commute is my exercise, so is my job, so is a lot of the time I spend with my kids.
You don't need more time, you don't need separate time, you just need to be more active in the things you already do.
With two desk jobs? How?
Well the main problem is the desk jobs, honestly, but bike commuting is a straight improvement to your day.
I don't know if you have to go into an office but I work from home so I guess I have the privacy of being able to put a cycle under my desk and I do that for 30 minutes at least in order to burn off some calories. Has to be 30 minutes or more too. Never under that amount.
I still find it hard to do it for 30 minutes though. I miss days all the time.
I do work in an office, in a reception area so it's extra hard alas.
A company I worked for years ago had several "walk stations" - always thought it was a good idea, but companies rarely bless IT with such improvements to quality of life.
Lmao we have a bat infestation. I don't think we'll get that fancy.
Running from the bats could prove to engage the core and legs.
do you work in an office located in the jungle?
No, a rickety old hospital haha.
dude you have time. you're posting on lemmy, it's a matter of priorities, not time.
I'm at work haha. I work 60-70 hours a week and I have a knee injury and I'm tired.
I can definitely understand that. It's a wierd paradox, though, that getting exercise will actually give you more energy, and the mobility you gain will make injuries heal better. If you can do a simple bodyweight workout just for a couple months, you won't regret it.
exercise has never ever given me more energy.
Do body weight exercises at work instead of Lemmy.
Only if you want to though.
Wake up earlier and do it in the morning when you’re not tired, and don’t do knee exercises until it heals.
Exercise only works if you make it a routine/lifestyle, like brushing your teeth. It’s one of the few things in life that is all positives with zero downsides.
