# Walking Workstations The Steelcase Walk Station and The JW Treadmill Desk (ANIMATION) By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-06-21 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walk-to-work-at-home-the-steelcase-walk-station References: [bornrich.org](http://www.bornrich.org/entry/jw-treadmill-desk-with-multi-screen-monitors-will-turn-you-into-a-fitness-freak/) One of the big office furniture companies, [Steelcase](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-office-starter-pack), decided that making a “walk” station would be pretty cool. And it kinda is. Especially when you add four monitors. Remember Gordon Gecko of the movie Wall Street, working out while the slashed and burned his way to millions. He would like this. Your current treadmill just slides right into place. Personally I identify with the Rodney Dangerfield character in Caddy Shack: “Buy! - Everybody is buying? Then sell.” But what if you have [multiple monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-smart-monitor-swing)? Well JW has entered the game with its own [walking workstation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergonomic-workstations), called the 'Treadmill Desk'. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Walking Workstations:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop customizable walking workstations with advanced features like multiple monitors. - **Steelcase Walk Station:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore integration of augmented reality and fitness tracking technologies in the Steelcase Walk Station. - **JW Treadmill Desk:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce smart functionality in the JW Treadmill Desk to provide personalized workout plans and productivity insights. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Office Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate ergonomic design principles and IoT integration in office furniture to support health and productivity. - **Fitness Equipment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate gamification elements and virtual reality experiences in fitness equipment to enhance user engagement and motivation. - **Technology Integration:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore integration of technologies like AI, machine learning, and biometrics in creating advanced workstations and fitness equipment. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Minimalist Wooden Desk Treadmills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-walker.md) - [Multifunctional Home Treadmills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lifesmart-tm2202.md) - [Standing Desk Workstations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/standing-desk-workstations.md) - [App-Connected Desk Treadmills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walking-pad-treadmill.md) - [Foldable Under-Desk Treadmills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walkingpad-a1-pro.md) - [Hybrid Schedule Workstation Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/humanex-x3.md) - [Dual-Section Standing Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dual-lift-desk.md) - [Motorized Cable-Hiding Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steno-sitandstand-work-desk.md) - [Freestanding Vertical Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/workstick.md)
