There would many more fit office workers if everyone had to sit at the Elliptical Work Desk. The Elliptical Work Desk is a desk with a built-in elliptical machine that lets you lose weight while you work.
The Elliptical Work Desk may seem like a goofy fitness gadget, but it is actually meant to do some serious work. The desk portion can adjust from 27 to 48 inches at the push of a button, letting you use a more conventional office chair to work in if you get tired of sitting in the elliptical machine. Under normal usage conditions, users of the Elliptical Work Desk will burn an estimated 4,000 calories per work week. Unfortunately, there is a price to pay if you want to look good while you work. The Elliptical Work Desk sells for the princely sum of $8,450. Looks like I'll have to stick to taking the stairs if I want a workplace workout.
