Try these simple but effective desk exercises to keep your strong muscles strong and reduce your health risks. 1. Desk push-ups Take a few steps back from your desk, place your hands flat on your desk and slightly wider than your shoulders, slowly lower yourself down, and then push back up. 2. Triceps dips Sit on the edge of a chair without wheels. Facing forward, place your hands flat on the edge of your chair and slowly bend your elbows back, lower yourself down until your upper arms are almost parallel to the ground, then straighten arms back up. 3. Squats Stand tall, with your chair behind you. Feet shoulder-width apart, lower down until your buttock almost touches your seat, then rise back up. 4. Seated reverse jack knives Sit on the edge of your chair, hands holding onto the seat. Lean your torso back and extend your legs out in front of you. Tuck into a crunch and extend back out.
