6/5/2025-NO to chips, yes to exercise snacks

You don’t need the latest research to convince you how physical fitness can help you sell. And you certainly don’t need a PhD to know that if you stare at your computer all day, you’ll feel like mush by 3 pm.

The brain needs oxygen and blood to perform optimally…so why are you sitting on your butt all day and letting the oxygen and blood pool in your butt?

Try "exercise snacks" – short, frequent bursts throughout the day! They’re better for ya than chips and crackers.

Set your alarm today for :55 minutes and when it rings, get up and do something physical for 5 minutes.

Pushups…sit-ups…jumping jacks…whatever.

If possible, walk around the block.

KEEP setting your alarm for the 55-minute mark of each hour.

Sure, you’ll run many red lights throughout the day because you can’t tear away, but even if you get in three or four exercise snacks, you’ll feel better and be more productive.

While it’s true that you’ll need more exercise than an exercise snack each day, these snacks are crucial in preventing you from being glued to your chair for hours. They’re not just a break from work…exercise snacks are a boost to your productivity. Even bathroom breaks can’t match the benefits of an at-your-desk routine.

All it takes is a reminder and discipline.

For the reminder part, set a bunch of 5-minute breaks at the :55 mark of every hour. Don’t worry if you miss a few of them; you might set eight during the day and only get to four…and that’s a HUGE win.

As for the more significant exercise habits you need., you don’t need another source telling you about the benefits of exercise or how to hard-wire a rigorous routine into your week.

Remember that your brain will thank you when you move your body.

Stand up….YES, right now.

Stand up, hit the link below, and DO the 5-minute exercise.

You will be sooooo happy you did.

Plus, you’ll be amazed at how something so simple and easy can make you feel so energized and good.
