"My employer recently purchased a LifeSpan Fitness Treadmill
Desk for our office to encourage employees to move more. The table is
stable, large and perfectly positioned so that I can walk in a
comfortable, upright manner while I'm working the mouse and keyboard on
my computer. The treadmill is sturdy, quiet and is easily controlled by
the well-positioned user panel. I like that the machine keeps track of
the time, distance and calories burned during my walk."

"As an orthopedic surgeon, I see every day the repercussions of a
sedentary lifestyle, weight control problems and lack of physical
conditioning. Busy schedules can be to blame, but simply changing the
way you manage your day can be the solution. Moving more at work can
help manage the imbalance of physical activity and work schedules. I
don't sweat more. I can type and read without problems. I am not short
of breath on the phone. And most importantly, I have more energy at
work.
Yes, I do get chuckles from people who see the desk. The laughs
are quickly followed by questions. And the questions are almost always
followed by requests to give it a try. My office staff is lining up to
use my desk when I am at the hospital!"

"I can already tell that this is the perfect device for my
lifestyle. I am a relatively new older mom (I have a 16-month-old) and
hold an executive position with a non-profit foundation. I work from
home when I am not traveling and needed to find a way to integrate
activity into my day — besides chasing my toddler. This is the ticket. I
can already tell that my energy level is up (and I'm high energy
anyway) and I am looking forward to starting my work day even more."
