Get Fit at Work

Looking for a great way to get fit at work? Here are a few exercises that you can do in your office. And don't forget to take a walk or jog at lunch time and take the stairs as much as possible to add cardio into your day:
1) Bridge-to strengthen the glutes and abs.
2) Opposite Arm/Leg-Start on all fours with your wrists under your shoulders and knees under your hips. Your head and neck are in line with your spine. Lift the right arm (to the height of your shoulder) and your left leg (to the height of your hips). Focus on squeezing in the lower back and hold for two seconds. Lower and repeat for 10 repetitions. Do 2 to 3 sets on each side. This exercise strengthens the lower back.

3) Plank-to strengthen the abs.

These exercises can be done by expectant mamas too!
