Every time I've gone to the bathroom over the past month, that I've remembered to do it, I've done 25-30 squats, or squat-and-holds. This generally works out to 75-90 a day, though I often forget so it's more like 25 per day on average. I don't often get the chance to workout, so it's nice to do this at intervals throughout the day, since 30 squats by itself is not a horrendous amount. The key is not being in the bathroom for 20 minutes and making people wonder.
In addition to the way it's gradually improving the appearance of my thighs/butt, it gets the blood pumping and MAKES ME WARM. How wonderful.
The idea is extremely simple, and probably works no matter where you work, though I have an advantage in that my office has a one-stall bathroom, so I have some liberating privacy.
The bathroom also rocks because it has a huge, brightly lit mirror that enables me to watch the angle of my back as I descend. When it comes to squats, form is key, so mirror proves very useful.
Needless to say if you did grow increasingly concerned with taking too long and making people think bad things about you, you are in control of the workout; break up the number of repetitions and get to the bathroom more often throughout the day (if you are able.)
This is not me.
Hooray!
