Workout Station
The Steelcase Store known for their sheik, innovate and crazy designs for the office space released a new desk! But this isn't your ordinary desk. Instead it has a built-in treadmill!

"The Sit-to-Walkstation is the fully integrated combination of an electric height-adjustable worksurface with an exclusively engineered, low speed commercial grade treadmill...designed to bring healthy habits to sedentary workers while they are actually working"

Is this crazy or what? Do you think working out while working would be productive?

I heard about these awhile ago. Seems legit to me. Maybe a waste of money...but some people have so much that, well, why not?

I think it's AWESOMEEE. but I imagine that it would be hard to do both at the same time...harder to concentrate.

Gosh, that would be so hard to type and walk at the same time. x__x

I think the bouncing up and down that comes with walking would make reading small words on the computer excruciatingly hard.

I think this is a pretty cool idea actually. I know if I had a desk job I would love something like this.

I love the idea. I would try it out. Anything to keep me moving while wasting mindless hours online or writing stories would be beneficial.

I think it would only be good if I wasn't doing anything... If I were just going on Xanga, facebook, etc. But if I were trying to write a paper or actually study, that "workout station" would be a no go for me. Lol! Wow.. It looks so funny.

It would be awesome if the computer only turned on when you were walking. Otherwise I'd just be tempted to put a chair on top of the treadmill. It must be really hard to walk and type at the same time...

Power the computer by walking. Better keep walking or it'll shut down. xD

I think that's pretty nifty. Would I buy one? I highly doubt it, but I still think it's cool.

I think it's awesome! Even if you walked at a slow pace it would still burn more calories than just sitting in his chair.

I think it would make reading and typing quite difficult.
