In fact, you may be surprised to hear that I believe that you can get more done by moving more. In my experience, you will be able to be more productive and happier if you move a little bit every hour or so. You'll be more productive because your mind and body will be more alert and energized. You'll be happier because you'll feel better and won't suffer from the various ailments that come from sitting too much. The more you do it the easier it becomes.
You may be thinking, "Really? Getting up and moving around a little bit every hour is not that difficult?" It's not that it's incredibly difficult to do, rather that it's incredibly easy to NOT do. In other words, it's easy to just stay in your chair and do the work. But once you start getting up and moving around a little bit, you'll start to feel really good and it will become easier and easier to get up and move. The key is to start small. Try standing up and walking around your office for a minute or two every hour. Or even walking down the hallway and around the outside of your office building every hour or so.
The main thing is to just start moving. In this blog post, I will give you a list of apps that you can use to help you get up and move around. In my opinion, these are the best activity and break apps available on the market.
