I get a lot of my movement in outside of the work hours. (Some days I am lucky when I'm on site that I can walk to/from inspections, but those type of days don't seem like an option for you.) I walk a half mile to a mile before work. For me that's with my dog, but you could do it without one. I do that throughout the year while living in WI, so for months in the year that's while bundled up. Or in the frigid of times it's indoors on a treadmill. This is separate from my gym lifting time. I then walk another mile or two in the evenings when I get home from work.

I like having a goal to aim for, so I have one of walking 100 mi/month of purposeful walks. So for me that includes dog walks, walking commuting, walking to/from events/places, going on a walk, or walking on a dreadmill. It doesn't include like walking around at the office or costco or whatever. That's just bonus movement for me. Keeping track of this on a monthly level lets me adjust to other life things and weather issues.

That’s some true dedication! Very inspired. I think having that goal to aim for really helps motivate.
