    Question Desk Workouts?

    I sit at a desk all day long and was wondering if anyone has come across any "desk exercises"? Preferably inconspicous?
    I do get up and walk on the treadmill in the morning but I thought that if I could keep myself semi active during working hours this may help boost my activity level and calorie burning.


    TIA

    How about these?

    Abs

    Sit up straight with your back against your chair.
    Exhale.
    Tense your stomach muscles.
    Hold for 30 seconds.
    Repeat three times.

    Glutes

    Sit upright in your chair.
    Squeeze your buttocks together.
    Relax and repeat.
    Do three sets of 10 - 15 reps.

    I'll look thru my books and see what else I can come up with!
