Incredible, but Unfit India You absolutely love your job! It's interesting, rewarding and challenging. But it also might be hazardous to your health. Some of the most commonly faced health issues include Obesity, Respiratory Issues, Neck & Back Pain, Eye-sight Issues and Sleep Disorders. Here are some interesting health facts about JSW Workforce. 63% of JSW employees ranked average in a 3 Min Cardiovascualr Step Test. 31% of JSW employees have an extremely poor Body Fat Percentage To combat the adverse effects of the 9-to-5 routine, it's important to exercise. But when can you find the time? Workplace workouts can help you make the most of your limited hours. With a little creativity, you can take advantage of the few minutes you have between pending deadlines and learn to exercise while you work. How to Get Your Share of Exercise During Work Hours? The Laptop Bicep Curl If you're carrying your laptop to a meeting use your device to complete 10 bicep curls with each arm on your walk to the conference room. Get a full range of motion with your arm, extending it straight down at your side & bringing the laptop to shoulder height on each curl. Keep the abs contracted to engage the core as you walk. A stapler or tape dispenser with a weighted bottom or even your full water bottle are good replacements. The Desk Chair Swivel Use your desk chair to swivel with your oblique abs. Sit upright, let your feet hover over the floor. Hold the desk firmly. Use your core to swivel the chair from side to side. Swish back and forth for 10 rounds.  The Coffee Break Kickback Sneak this glute exercise in every time you get up to refill your coffee mug. Standing tall, balance on one leg and lift the opposite leg straight back. Keep the lifted leg as straight as possible, focusing on squeezing the muscles on that side. Hold onto the counter if balancing feels tough. Complete 10 on each leg. The Squat 'N' Sit Every time you return to your desk chair -- whether it's from a meeting, a bathroom break or a vending machine run -- do five squats before settling in. With feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart and the chest lifted, sit down and back, tapping your rear lightly on the seat before pushing up through the heels to return to standing. Try these fun bursts of a workout either by yourself or with few of your colleagues and kick start your journey towards a healthier and a happier work day.
