Forget about chewing gum -- Can you walk and code at the same time?
Forget about chewing gum -- Can you walk and code at the same time?
My home treadmill has quite a bit of too-high structure around the front of it for easy deskification.. might have to do some warranty voiding.
The only result would be a bad quality code and no fitness gains. Besides the fact that treadmill is generally useless, any training could only be effective if you concentrate on exercise, constantly think about good form and significant effort. I'm a P90X coach, active climber and runner and know what I'm talking about.

Vladimir Kelman I agree, this doesn't seem like it would give you much more than your basic standing desk.
Well, anything to get out the chair and get the heart pumping, lowering your risk for heart disease due to inactivity.
That's true too, Brad.
What is highly effective for both men and women and what never would be boring is a kettlebell. Just twenty minutes or so and you'll get a super-effective cardio and core training. It's a Russian tool originally, but I only started to use it last winter here in US. The best system to start from is SKOGG System. Michael Skogg teaches proper technique very well. You can also buy a cheaper DVD by Jillian Michaels called Shred-It with Weights. To swing a kettlebell is not an easy task, I'd recommend for average man in a reasonable shape to start from 12 or 16 kilogram, for a woman - to start from 6 or 8 kilogram (it's a tradion to measure kettlebell weight in kilograms.)
I want this. Might build one from scratch.
