Sitting is the new smoking! But with my walking desk, I no longer worry about all the health problems that come from sitting all day. And it’s the ultimate in multitasking, because while I’m working, I get benefits like more energy, better mood, and healthier weight – all of which would require an hour or more of walking each day.
In this short video, I address some of the common questions about a walking desk (also known as a treadmill desk).
- Is it hard to work on a computer while walking?
- How fast do you walk?
- Is it safe to walk on the treadmill while working?
- Does the noise bother other people?
- Can you move the treadmill out of the way when needed?
