Here’s some good ideas for keeping yourself in shape without the need for a fitness regime. Some sound a little silly but “every little helps”:

1. *Lift things, don’t slide them* - When you have to move a chair, pick it up and carry it.
2. *Put your socks and shoes on while standing* - This will improve your balance, as well as help (to some degree) your muscles.
3. *Take the stairs* - Obvious, no?
4. *Get some fresh air* - If you have time go for a 5-minute walk before work (or better walk to work).
5. *Use a rough towel after your shower* - This exfoliates your skin and warms up your muscles.
6. *Box at shadows* - Shodowboxing uses a whole host of muscles and focuses your mind much more than a repetitive activity like jogging. Plus you can imagine pummeling someone you dislike which can be fun.
