  • Walk anywhere. Pace the halls, circle the block, or walk in place for 15 minutes. This will get your blood pumping and your metabolism fired up. And, as a bonus, it will burn about 60 calories.
  • Stair-step it. Climbing stairs for 5 minutes will tone and tighten your leg muscles. (Prefer to jump rope? 
  • Push the wall. Stand 2 feet away from the wall, feet shoulder-width apart. While keeping your back straight, place your palms against the wall, and lean your body in for a count of three, then push back for a count of three. Repeat for 2 minutes.
  • Pop a squat. Choose a chair that creates a 90-degree angle in your legs when seated. Stand with the chair behind you, feet shoulder-width apart, arms straight out in front of you. Slowly lower yourself into a seated position, sit for a count of three, then stand up slowly. Repeat for 2 minutes. 
  • Touch down. Stand with your arms straight out at your sides and your feet hip-width apart. Bending at the waist, reach one hand toward the opposite foot. Return to a standing position. Do for 1 minute, alternating sides.
