Lose Weight While You Work With Steve Bordley’s TrekDesk

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on Steve Bordley to discuss his TrekDesk. Steve says that he was recently nominated for an award for his desk at CES. This amazingly large workspace is 72″ x 34″ and fits over the treadmill that you already own that is gathering dust in your garage. According to Dr Fitness this will change the way you work. In his perfect world workers will move from cubicles to treadmill desks like the TrekDesk. Steve explained that by walking at a slow 1 mph pace all day long you can burn a significant amount of calories. For example sitting down burns about 15 calories an hour – standing burns about 50 calories an hour and walking at 1 mph can burn over 100 calories an hour. And at that non-strenuous slow pace you barely even notice you are doing anything – you’re not tired or sweating. It’s even better for your back than slouching over your computer all day. All you listeners who work at home and want to lose weight – you have to check this out. To learn more please go to www.trekdesk.com

00:00 / 0:01:11

A while back I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Champion skier Michelle Roark on the Chic Perspectives Show, and I wanted to share part of the interview here.

Michelle is an amazing athlete, a World Champion and Olympian skier – and as if that wasn’t enough, she is also a super savvy chic entrepreneur, the founder and president of Phi-nomenal, a perfume line that no only smells good but also has the added benefit of helping maximize performance and really bring out the best of the person wearing it. Â What a Phi-nomenal vision!

Michelle talked about how she got the inspiration for her business idea from a conversation with her coach about the importance of being able to utilize all five senses when visualizing the perfect performance.

You must check out her sites at@

www.Phi-nomenal.com
www.VoilaSSP.com

She then used her Chemical Engineering background and her mathematical knowledge of Phi to develop a unique and well-balanced product line designed to empower the human spirit.

Phi-nomenal’s Confidence Natural Perfume Oil and Custom Crystal bottle sold out within a week of being introduced at Eve Boutique in Denver.

Michelle talks about how she balances competing on the World Cup circuit while running her growing company, her recent trip to the White House and her company’s goal of being the scent of the first woman President of the United States.

Michelle has been featured in Business Week, Self Magazine, New York Times, Washington Post, USA Today and Forbes.

You can learn so much from her story and I am so excited to have her interview as part of Chic Perspectives Season One. Â You listen to her Chic Tip here.

I been getting exciting updates from Michelle this winter as she continues to rock it out on the ski slopes. Â You may also catch her on one her many media appearances:

Walk While You Work Then Eat What You Want

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how to lose weight while you work with a trek desk. As Dr Jim Levine from the Mayo Clinic talks about the NEAT method for losing weight – humans are meant to move. So if you can create ways to stand up and stay moving throughout your day you can lose weight pretty easily and quickly. This kind of all day movement does not have to be vigorous it can be very casual and you will still burn lots of calories throughout the day. A friend of our Steve Bordley has come up with a TrekDesk. This workspace sits over the treadmill you have collecting dust in your garage. You just set the desk over the treadmill and do your work while walking at 1 mph all day long. So eat up and lose weight as long as you stay moving. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
