You may want to try a short jog to fill in the missing work out. That is how I started. I determined to do just 10 minutes a day. I ran in my pajamas and crocs for the first few months, on a treadmill. My rule was never run faster than it hurts, and in the first 10 min run I probably did half a mile (lol, walking speed :P)
But running didn't help me with my neck and back or arms, so that's why I started with the upper body stuff, but I am noob with this. :P With the milk I microwave it, I have electric kettle for the tea though. Maybe I will have to make my self drink more tea to my exercise in?
Another note on the jogging thing, I run on the balls of my feet, to avoid knee/hip/spine issues associated with running. Though it's more strain on your calfs/ankles/tendons (soft tissues that repair easier than cartilage), and it's a little more exertion.
But my rule was I waste so many 10 min blocks of time in my life, I could do this.(10 min getting dressed, 10min in the shower, 10 min reading news, or eating breakfast, etc...) I was in physical pain all the time from years in a desk, I was desperate, that was my motivation. That was probably 3-4 years ago. This past winter it was too cold to run, so I tried the "actual" workout stuff.
What is a "press up for zero time" mean?

By that I mean it doesn't take up any special time, like doing my step ups when the kettle is boiling. Even if that extends to 3-4 minutes that's still done in no time. BTW I measured the table and it's actually 17"/43cm high which is coincidentally about as high as a natural step up would go.
