WALKING PAD FOR YOUR DESK

In an effort to stay active and move throughout the day, many people are utilizing walking pads or under-desk treadmills. Combined with a standing desk, walking pads offer a variety of features meant to boost your activity while working but are quiet and compact enough to not interrupt meetings or take up too much space. Some factors to consider when purchasing a walking pad include: price, size, stability, portability, noise level, storage options, weight capacity and what additional features they offer. Remember, walking pads often need to be plugged into a power outlet (some are battery powered though), which shouldn’t be an issue if you’re using one under a desk, but if you want to also use it while folding laundry or another otherwise stationary activity, keep that in mind. You can walk on the pad whenever the mood strikes, and experts suggest starting with 15 – 20 minutes of walking, three times a day and gradually increase from there. Note that walking pads aren’t generally made for running on as they only accommodate slow speeds so if running is something you want to do, look for one that has more features and specifically says it can be used for running.
