What is the Camouflaged Fitness trend?
Camouflaged Fitness: Many health-minded individuals simply can't find the time to hit the gym; fortunately, furniture designers are creating innovative products to help them solve this problem. Now, busy consumers can work out quickly and conveniently when they're at home -- simply by using their furniture as fitness tools. These "hidden" workout stations range from loungers to desks, but all are created with the same goal in mind: to give time-pressed people a way to squeeze in exercise whenever they can.
