After an 8-hour shift, it's hard to get yourself to the gym. So, what is one to do? Work out right from your desk!

Seriously, I have done some of these in the studio with Mike staring across from me. It doesn't matter, I need to get fitness in!

In a latest study, sitting is reportedly bad for you whether or not you workout. Prior to this, studies have shown that sitting all day is detrimental to your health and can increase your risk of cancer by 60%.

Why not lower those risks by doing the most we can to stay in shape? Here's a list of five EASY workouts you can do whether at home or from work:
