It’s 4:30 pm and the countdown has begun until quitting time (only 60 min to go, 59 min, 58 min...). For many, the idea of going to a gym or taking a brisk walk after work is the last thing on their mind after a long day. Although physical activity has been engineered out of most of our lives, this does not disregard the fact that movement has historically been used for our productivity and survival (how else would we be getting our food!?). It’s well-known that physical activity is beneficial for our health as seen by a host of studies showing a reduction in risk of disease with more exercise.
