Nine To Five Fitness

Uptown Girls need their exercise. However, when you’re working, on the go, and living your fabulous social life, there isn’t always time to get in a full workout on a regular basis. Uptown Girls have some ideas for how you can “sneak in” some exercise throughout your day without having to squish your schedule even tighter. If you are a 9-5 office gal, and you work in a cubicle or office of your own, there are several ways you can sneak in some fitness. If you have paper weights, do some bicep curls with them if no one is around, or some other arm exercises that will tone your upper body. If you have a private office, you can take your chair and do some tricep dips or squats while you are taking a five-minute break from the project you are working on. Another idea we have for you is to find the staircase, and on your lunch break, spend half of it eating, and spend the other half walking up and down the stairs. This is great exercise and you don’t even have to leave the office! Also, you can find a “walking buddy” and pack your sneakers every day and spend 2/3 of your lunch break walking around the neighborhood as you chat instead of sitting down and chatting. You can still gossip, but you burn calories while doing it!
