Workplace Workout: Benefits of Finding Time to Exercise

A quick, 10-minute workout while at work may be that extra push you need. NBC 7’s Ashley Matthews explains.

Obesity affects 39 percent of the population in the United States, according to the National Center for Health, and can cause serious health concerns; like heart disease and diabetes.

That's why exercise is so important each and every day, health experts like Olga Hays with Sharp Healthcare say. The key, even if it's a short workout, is to keep that heart rate up.

Hays put together an easy to follow, 10-minute workout and said adding this to your daily routine is only going to be a positive thing.

Even adding in the quick workout while at work will provide health benefits. Here is Hay's recommended routine:

  1. Jumping Jacks, 30 seconds
  2. Rest, 30 seconds
  3. Burpees, 30 seconds
  4. Rest, 30 seconds
  5. Push-ups, 30 seconds
  6. Rest, 30 seconds
  7. Repeat everything one time
