Adopting the right exercise schedule is crucial to any fitness program. Most people find it difficult to continue exercising for a long time because they do not follow an exercise schedule that suits their lifestyle and physical needs. In this article, we will outline a few such small exercises that can fit into any kind of exercise schedules.

Exercise schedule for busy executives:

Modern executives face a dilemma – their work requires them to stay and look fit, but the schedule of their work leaves them with no time, and sometimes no energy, to exercise. For such executives, making and following an exercise schedule is essential if they are to stay fit, as well as for their professional success. For most executives today, making a positive first impression is necessary, and physical fitness is part of this appearance.

Executives have tightly packed daily work schedules. They can spare small amount of time several times a day for exercise. These times can be fitted into and around their work schedules. The short time periods mean that you cannot go to a gym and hence need those exercises that can be done in the office, possibly without any equipment. Some of the exercises you can do are:

1. Head press: Interlock your fingers and place them behind your head, palm side towards the head. Push the head against the hands, and the hands against the head. This will strengthen the neck muscles and increase blood circulation in that region. It will help improve conditions of stiff neck and headaches. The higher blood circulation to your head will improve your focus in work. The best part is that this can be done sitting right at your desk, and nobody will even know! You can also do this in a subway, while waiting at a red light, or while standing in a line in a supermarket. This is one exercise that can fit into anybody’s exercise schedule.

2. Leg stretch: You can do this while you are seated at your desk in the office. This exercise easily fits into the exercise schedule of any executive. Stretch your legs forward, under the desk, and hold it there for half a minute. Take another half a minute of break, and repeat the process. Do this in batches of five as many times in a day as you feel convenient. The benefit of this exercise is that it increases blood circulation in the legs as well as the whole body. Moreover, none of you colleagues would come to know when you do exercise.

3. Walking up stairs: Most offices, especially in the city, are located in high-rise buildings. Walking up the stairs to reach your office is a great way to exercise, for which you do not even need make an exercise schedule. You can even pace the amount of exercise you get by slowly increasing the number of floors you climb. If your office is in a very high building, you can get off the elevator some floors below it, and then walk up to your floor.
