I have incorporated mini-breaks to walk in the middle of the day help me think and digest when I am writing or thinking through a problem for a client. Also, if I’m on calls I do them while walking around. I have gotten good at taking notes while I walk. I’ve also replaced networking requests for “coffee” for “walking meetings.” It isn’t about making the time or thinking about physical activity or movement as a separate exercise time, but something that is integrated into your life – including work time. –
