Default on my BUTT all day

So I work at a bank in a call center. I am on my butt for 8 hours 4 days a week. I work second shift by the time I get home it's 10:00PM. I feel like on the days I have to work my weight will not budge, because I am literally doing nothing. What if any exercises do you know that you can do on your breaks or even at your chair that don't make you look silly. I gotta do something.

I used to work in a call center (still w the same co... new dept... off phones!). You can go too crazy but I would contract my stomach muscles and hold them for varying lengths of time, same things w the buns. During your breaks/lunch you can try taking walks. I'm not sure what you're dealing w at your desk but at my company we were allowed to stand up at our desks. Try working standing up or while pacing at your desk (don't get tripped up on your cord!). Good luck!

At my job we often have to be on long training calls and one of my co-workers has a set of little hand weights in her office and on the days we have to do calls, she does upper body work.

But we have our own offices, I don't know if you're out in the middle of a room where everyone can see you.

Eat lunch at your desk and go for a walk at breaktime. I have a desk job, too, so I try to do this when the weather permits.
