Mostly just asking this for a college assignment since I'm a student there, and this is the one I picked out of the twenty I came up with.

Feel free to also answer why you do such exercises, describe the last time you have engaged in physical exercise, and provide any additional thoughts.

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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

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.
