This week’s lunch break is perfect for people who can’t move their legs or just don’t want to. That’s right, you will work your upper body and core without getting out of your chair.

Difficulty : mild to moderate.
Modifications : Some movements include leg stabilization, but often there is an upper body-only option.
Equipment : additional light dumbbells and an expander with two handles and an anchor. I trained without them, just doing movements with tense muscles.
Sweating Factor : Low to Medium, depending on how fast you move.
