More and more people work in jobs where they are forced to sit on a chair for long hours.

Prolonged sitting can be devastating for both your health and waist circumference.

But there are things you can do, even if you are in the office or at home.

Here are six exercises that everyone can do - and the best thing? You don't even have to get up from your chair!

1. Lifting the knee to the chest

How to do:

Sit with your back straight when you don't touch the armrest. Feet on the floor with thighs wide. When you breathe in, lift your right knee to your chest. Hold it for a few seconds before slowly releasing your foot to the floor as you exhale. Now, repeat the same action with your left leg.

Repeat 20-30 times on each leg.

This exercise helps to burn fat, improves metabolism, and strengthens the abdominal muscles.

5. Lifting body

How to do:

This exercise requires a stable chair with armrests. Hold the armrests firmly and steady, and then stretch your hands as you lift your whole body from your chair with your feet in the air. When you are in the air, lift your knees to your chest and try to hold the pose for 15 seconds. Then lower yourself down and take a deep breath.

Repeat four times.

This exercise effectively burns fat and strengthens your back, shoulders and abdomen.

How to do:

Sit on the chair with straight back, without touching the backrest. Place both hands behind the head. Then lift your right knee and try to touch it with your left elbow. Return to the starting position and repeat the same move with your left knee and right elbow.

Make four sets of 15 repetitions on each side.

This exercise strengthens the abdominal muscles. Just make sure the knees touch your elbows.
