"Too much work, can't get to the gym" is not an excuse anymore!
The StepDesk is a multi-tasker's dream. A simple, but exciting gadget. How many times have you been on the treadmill making mental lists of everything you need to do at work? As I get older, those mental lists don't hang around as long as I'd like them too. This is a very simple tool that's been long coming. It's about time. It's ALL about making the most of your time, and this StepDesk will really help. I am a very busy working Mom. Multi-tasking is my middle name and this really excites me!
Take it with you - Home- Gym - Hotel....Now if I could only get a treadmill in my office I'd be all set!
Yes it will be great to hold my lap-top and get some work done, while walking away the pounds, but my wheels are already turning about what else I can do with this desk. Scrapbooking, Cutting coupons- running with scissors- sorting my mail - paper work, etc..
This year we will see more people becoming health conscious and this is the beginning steps to getting exercise to be a part of every day life.
"Work-Walking" is a term you will hear more and more of in 2008!
