I did it. Standing desk and walking pad. I just got today and I’m already at 3 miles walked. So worth it.

That keyboard looks like more exercise than my eyes could handle!

My gf has the same one, she loves it! Although both our mechanical keyboard at the same time gets a little annoying sometimes

Can you move it easily? I like to do menial tasks to first thing in the morning and the last 30 min of the day- can this scoot out of the way easily?

Is it easy to keep balance on a walking pad/under desk treadmill?

It’s not super loud. My footstep is the loudest part. I’m getting used to it. I’m going super slow when I type for now.

But how do you type when you’re bouncing up and down? I can barely hit the Netflix play button when I’m on the treadmill.

My problem is always that I need to focus 100% on my laptop/calls at times so I fear I may fall down or sound as if I’m panting (am on back to back calls all day long)

I’m turning off when I have calls. If they are quick I just stop the pad. If they are long then I’ll sit down.

Omg this is amazing. Are you able to focus on your work more than focusing on walking? Is the walking distracting? I feel like it would involve some multi tasking of the brain like rubbing your tummy and patting your head.

I just slow down to like 1MPH at times when I need to focus a bit more. But it’s pretty stable and my desk is too so I can balance a bit on that.

Can you share your brand and style you purchased?

I don’t think I could focus using this .. I could read a book while walking as long no limitation to distract me if it’s fears to fall, sound despite if it’s machine or my feet. I’m ok if I be on calls as long I’m not the presenter 😂
I usually after work watch movies while walking on regular treadmill with Bluetooth headset.

Good for you guys enjoying it. 🙃

I hear you. I got an under desk bike but can only use it when I don’t need to focus.

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
