So I was recently reading an article that suggestes many ways to fit in 5 or 10 mins exercise sessions into an 8hr works day to meet the current recommendations of 30minutes of mild-moderate exercise for adults.
Now I feel like as nurses we are already on our feet walking (sometimes running) all day for 12hrs.
However it did get me to thinking if it was possible to get in a few squats, lunges, modified bicep curls etc without looking as though you're slacking (or crazy) while you're on the floor.
I'm all for fitness and health. Esp when after hectic shifts when the last thing on my mind is a quick set of jumping jacks stretching.
Has anyone achieved this? What's your tips and tricks? Do you even think it necessary in/during our line of work?
