Cardio Work Sleep - Being active while teleworking
Before you were confined to your home, you may have been active on your way to the office. Or, on the contrary, you may have been rather inactive, being stuck for long minutes or even hours in traffic jams in the morning and evening.
One thing is certain: since the advent of more widespread teleworking, we have all just reclaimed time. How can we take advantage of these reclaimed minutes to be more active, productive and happy at work at home?
The conference addresses the following topics:
- Exercising while working is possible
- Regular stretching for a more flexible and pain-free body
- A simple walking programme to get out and about every day
- My home gym at low cost
- Bonus: a daily routine for better concentration and productivity
