Desk Set - Modified push-up/Press

If you missed my earlier post Office Exercise you probably didn't know that we are accumulating some easy to do, easy to modify routines that you can do in any amount of space and with even a few spare minutes of time.

We are blogging about them here, and linking them over to Pinterest so you can see them all assembled conveniently in one place.  Once we have introduced all of the exercises, we will get REALLY fancy and start putting together WOW's (workout of the week).  We will submit some, you can always submit some - we're in this together, right?

So without further ado....drumroll.....

The Push-up!! Wait!!! don't leave yet.  The standard pushup is a true, full body workout.  If you can do a standard pushup, well good for you - I am jealous.  Feel free to do your fancy pushups.

For the rest of us, I bring you - the desk up
Desk up
(Even this can be modified to a very easy Wall Press - simply stand a few feet back from the wall, feet shoulder width apart, hands on the wall directly in front of your shoulders.  Bring your nose in toward the wall - and then push away.)

With the Desk Press, work your way up to a set of 20, 30, even 50 - we aren't using a lot of body weight here, so we are going for reps.  Once this is totally easy for you, you can graduate to a modified knee pushup, but that will be a separate post.

For now, a combination of the standing lunge, and the desk up, will provide a full body work out, right in your cube.
