Desk Excercise
 
What kind of excercise equipment can you get to excercise while sitting and working on a computer, preferably simultaniously.

i dont know of any equipment for that but i sit at pc all day and i think that if you keep moving you can burn those calories..like for me i will sit and constantly move my legs under the desk...pushing up and down with my toes or do little dance moves with them...lol.

how about a mini exercise bike? Or some ankle weights?

DeafinlySmart 01-22-2006 03:15 PM

Aren't the bikes pricey?

Yeah I don't know of any equipment either....but you can get up every once in a while and take the long way to the bathroom or just walk to halls for a few minutes....at least you are moving...I work at a desk all day long too but I walk the stairs and take the long way around my office...

LOL. I actually have an active job. It's when i get home and want to use a computer (which I don't get to use at work) that I would like something fairly inexpensive. I was just hoping someone knew of something they had or used. I know one person said something about a balancing disk, but I haven't figured out that and a desk yet.

I found a mini peddler for cheap (similar to the one walmart has online) but I'm doubting that it has any resistance. I don't know if it would do any good. I can't afford the powered one.

Qvc has a peddler for 40 bucks and it states it has resistance...the item number is V19649...Im not sure how big it is

I was looking at 20 range. I try not to spend too much on fitness stuff because I might not stick with it. Bad attitude, I know. Because you said that though, I went back and looked and it does have a tension knob!! :carrot:

Now, anybody have another product that's fun and cheap?

I didnt think of this till this morning but how about the thigh master that suzzanne summers had a long time ago. I still have it although i hadnt used it in a while...its that thing you put between your thighs and squeeze together, it may not burn so many calories but it will definitely tone up those thighs :) they can be found on ebay for about 10 bucks!

How about a ball to sit on?

DeafinlySmart 01-23-2006 02:19 PM

When I get on my ball, the baby jumps on me. I'm gonna have to get his own and get mine back out.
