On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy opened with Steve Bordley from Trek Desk. The Trek Desk is a cool table-like device that fits over any treadmill and it allows you to walk slowly (like at 1 mph) so you can burn calories (and lose weight) while you are
working. You can set up your whole work station on top of the Trek Desk. You walk at such a slow pace that you don’t even realize you are exercising. And you can do everything you normally do at work – type on the computer,surf the internet, talk on the phone, think, have meetings – all while standing and walking on your treadmill. You get all the benefits of exercise without even realizing you are working out. Trek Desk was recently named one of the best office luxury items from Forbes Magazine. Trek Desk is an easy way to get your 10,000 steps a day you need to lose weight and get in shape – you can literally do it in 3 hours without breaking a sweat. The fitness, weight loss and health benefits of adding this much walking to your day are amazing. To learn how you can start using that old treadmill in the basement again check out www.trekdesk.com

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
