V-Sit While You Sit
Reclaim those wasted minutes waiting for your computer to boot up by using them to do these quick and powerful seated chair office exercises. «The v-sit is one of the most effective ways to strengthen your entire midsection,» says Smith, and you don’t have to get on the floor to do it. In fact, this move is easy to do even in a skirt and heels, and is so subtle no one will know you’re doing it. 1. While sitting, scoot your butt to the front of your chair. Then lean back so that your upper back rests lightly on the seat back. Contract abs and lift your right knee up, then place your foot back down on the floor. Repeat with your left leg, doing 10 reps on each side. 2. Then, sit up straight on the front edge of your chair, engage abs and lean back again to lean upper back against the chair back. Sit up straight again, using your abs. Smith suggests 10 reps of the alternating leg exercises, then 10 reps of the front and back exercise. Once you get strong enough, pull both legs up during the exercises. Then do the movements together—legs come up, lean your upper back to the chair back, then sit up straight, and legs go back down
