Default 3pm pickup

Almost 3pm eastern ....for many of us this is a time of day where we need a mid day pick up. So go to a wall (or to the floor) and do 30 push ups and then sit on floor and do 30 Ab thrusters (where you lean back on hands and shoot legs in and out). Then go back to wall and do a 30 second wall squat (sit low as if in a chair and lean against the wall). Drink a glass of water and get back to work

I think i'll throw this in as a little 6pm pick me up (especially since i have visions of dark chocolate pudding dancing in my head). Somehow I think the thrusters will do more for my abs than the pudding will

lately I've been keeping a pair of dixie cups and a firewalker band in my desk at work. Whenever I feel like I've just been sitting for too long I'll bang out a 10-12 dixie cup lunges (front and side) and some firewalkers. Gotta counter that office butt!

OMG, so cool!! Do your co-workers see you doing that????
If they do, you should force them to do it too!!!!
