You’ve heard that a desk job leads to weight gain, but this bad rap can be beat, says James Levine, MD, a professor of medicine at the Mayo Clinic. In a recent study, more on-the-job standing and walking led workers to lose an average of 9 pounds and to lower triglyceride levels by nearly 40% in 6 months.

Walk or bike to work. If you ride the bus or the subway, get off at an earlier stop than usual and walk the rest of the way. If you drive to work, park at the far end of the parking lot — or park in the lot for a nearby building. In your building, take the stairs rather than the elevator. Move that body now!


3. Keep Fitness Equipment in Your Wok Area

Store resistance bands — stretchy cords or tubes that offer weight-like resistance when you pull on them — or small hand weights in a desk drawer or cabinet. Do arm curls between meetings or tasks.


4. Use a small water glass.
You’ll boost your step count getting up for refills and bathroom breaks. This will make you move a lot instead of keep on staying in one place. Bonus plateau-breaker: Use the facilities on a different floor (!)
