If you have the option, rather take the stairs.

Do you have stairs where you live or work? Then take them. Walking (or running) up the stairs is a great way to get your heart pumping and burning extra calories.

Feeling energetic? Then increase your speed and the number of stairs you take at a time. Taking two steps at a time (if you can do so safely) gives your glutes an extra workout (think tighter buttocks and give it a try!).

If you have no stairs to climb, take a short stroll instead. Taking a 10 or 20 minute brisk walk is a great way to get you out of your desk chair and moving. It is also a good way to relieve stress! And you will feel more energised and be more productive afterwards as well.
