Get Fit at Work - Treadmill Workstation

Just last month I was suggesting to coworkers that a treadmill/ computer desk would really help me shed some unwanted body fat. Well, little did I know that this is an actual reality.

While surfing the morning news via the web, I found this article which gives a snippet of what it would be like to work and walk at the same time.

Check it out here: Globe and Mail - Burning and Earning

Although the woman in the video says that walking and analytics were not her strong point, she did feel like she was benefiting from walking during work. She also notes that coworkers were making fun of her, but I would rather jokes about looking dorky exercising at work than jokes about my jiggly behind!

It's an interesting concept and one that would, most likely, cost companies more than they are willing to shell out on their employees well being. I guess if nothing else maybe I should get one of those exercise balls to sit on at work!
