There's been a lot of research done on the effects of sitting for long periods of time, even for people who exercise. One easy way to make sure you stay healthy if you have a sedentary job is to take micro exercise breaks. These short
little exercise breaks keep you healthy and keep you fresh at the
computer and if you do them throughout the day that adds up to a lot of
exercise.
Break Pal provides fitness at your desk and is on the Iphone too! Once you start the timer, Break Pal reminds you at pre-set intervals to take a quick break for a short exercise session. I find that these reminders are a great way to make sure you're taking some time throughout the day to stretch, move around, and get circulation going again.
