Did you know that you can do more for your energy levels, performance and overall wellness if you incorporate a few sneaky movement tactics into your day on a consistent basis, as opposed to heading to the gym or for a run a couple of times a week? Not to say you need to ditch the exercise all together, however regular movement during the day does more to impact your blood sugar levels, mood and mental alertness...which is a good thing considering most of us find it hard to fit exercise in amongst everything else happening in our week.

So here are a few sneaky movement tactics that can help you and your staff get moving more...with the bonus that some of them can be fun and even a little competitive!

•Wear a pedometer and have a competition in the office to see who can clock up the most steps in the day or the week - a prize for the most (and push ups for the least!)

•Program into your outlook calendar a pop up reminder that appears every hour remind you to stand up and walk around the office for 1 minute

•Dedicate 10 minutes of your lunch break to walking outside - fresh air, vitamin D and blood sugar control done!

•Stand whenever you take a phone call

•Move the printer further away and print single jobs at a time so you have to move more
