A Really Good Idea!!!

[DianaB]

I found an article about walking on a treadmill while working on the computer that I thought that all of you might find interesting. If you watch the videos on the right side you'll see that you can make your own. They show how people are able to work and exercise at the same time at a very low speed. It might be a good idea for those of us who are complaining about not getting enough exercise. I hope that you find it as interesting as I did. I think that I'm going to check into gettting a treadmill!

Not real impressed with the second one, but that first one was awesome. I spend entirely too much time on the computer..I could probably lose so much faster if I had that desk and started walking.

I thought that one of the videos in the first one showed a lot of do-it-yourself models. I noticed that one shelf was actually a table leaf and another just a board. My brother-in-law has a tread mill so I think that I'll ask him if he wants to loan it or sell it.

The second site I really didn't look it over too good. It was just another site listed with the article that I read. There were others too but I wasn't impressed with any of them but I love the idea that I don't have to buy special equipment to set up a desk.

Ironically, I'd been thinking about designing something like this. I agree, the first one with the plywood looks more comfortable.
