No time to exercise? I understand as most Malaysian work in a "Chinaman" company, with long working hours and 6 working days. By the time we reach home Malaysian will only have time to sleep or if they are lucky to have dinner. If that's the case then try to sneak in exercise here and there. Here how:
1. Do a tabatha interval after you wake up of bed, which including warm up should be no more than 6 minutes a day.
2. A climb of 5 stories of stair burn off 30 - 50kcal, not much but if you accumulate it it will seriously build up.
3. Don't put water container on your desk, instead walk over to your pantry to refill your drinks.
4. Walk while you speak on the phone.
5. Have lunch somewhere further.
6. Park your car a bit further.
7. If possible use public transportation, I've used trains for sometime and man its a good workout. Walking up the stairs, chasing after the train, walking to bus stop etc.
8. Use toilet in another floor.
9. Try to stand as much as you can, talk with your colleague standing up, if you can do a job standing up, do it. Standing up will burn 50 more calories per hour than sitting down. So if you stand up for 3 hours, thats 150 calories more, in a 5 days week thats 750 kcal, equivalent to 40 minutes on treadmill.
10. Spend 10 minutes a day of strength training, to increase muscle mass, muscle burn more calories than fat and will contribute a lot in long run. Here is a trainer who have quite a lot of intense 10 minutes at home workout technique:
These will accumulatively burn at least 200 - 400 calories, doesn't sound much but will contribute to your daily calories deficit. You also spend only 16 minutes of actual workout.
