The challenge is Exercise Snacks!
What are Exercise Snacks? Brief bouts of safe high intensity exercises dispersed throughout the day anywhere from 20 seconds to 3 minutes three times per day, 3-4 times per week. These can be done anywhere.
Types of Exercises: Squats, jumping jacks, sprints up the stairs, lunges, wall/knee or regular push-ups, high knees, burpees, calf raises, chair squats or whatever you are comfortable doing as long as you challenge yourself.
Benefits: Reduces all-cause mortality, improves cardio health and can offset the detrimental effects of prolonged sitting on metabolic outcomes. Improves glucose regulation especially if done 20-30 minutes before or after eating a meal. Easily accessible, you can do them anywhere.
How to get started: 
Week 1: start with 30 seconds of any exercise snack. Exercise morning, mid-day and evening three times per week.
Week 2 -4: gradually increase your time and intensity each week varying the various exercises of your choosing. Remember good form and stay safe.
Example:
Snack day 1: morning 30 seconds of squats, mid-day 30 seconds of wall push-ups and evening 30 seconds of jumping jacks or you can do the same exercise at each snack. Enjoy and have fun!
