Exercise While You Sit
Reviewed By:

This exerciser is great people whose feet and legs are mobility-restricted due to diabetes or other health impairments... And too, for those of us with mobility restrictions due to desk jobs, TV watching, video-game playing, and airplane travel....
A lightweight (3+ lb.) stepper with an adjustable resistance mechanism, the Sit-N-Stroll Deluxe requires very light to moderate effort for utilization. It comes with a battery-operated "pedometer" that counts your steps, amount of time spent stepping, and your estimated caloric burn. Conveniently, the Sit-N-Stroll just happens to come outfitted with a travel pouch, punctuated with various medical symbols, presumably to help insure you get to carry it onboard airplanes.
Even though I exercise every day, it's not enough to compensate for all the time I spend sitting at my desk.
This stepper is not an electronic piece of equipment like a Stair Master®? You have to use your own strength, energy, and will to keep it going, and that makes the "step as you work" task a very challenging one. But once I found my comfortable resistance level and got into the rhythm of alternating steps, the movements became automatic and I could easily concentrate on doing writing as I exercised. I was truly surprised that I could use the Sit-N-Stroll without it interfering in my productivity.
Now, I prefer to use the stepper while I work because it does provide benefits. It does more than exercise the feet; it utilizes the muscles, ligaments, and joints in your legs and hips. It keeps your knees in proper postural relation to your hips, and if your feet are on the pedals, your legs won't be crossed under you, which is pretty bad for your posture and circulation. I find that just resting my feet on the Sit-N-Stroll, while seated at my desk, improves my overall sitting posture and is comfortable as well.
I use the Sit-N-Strolland I recommend it!

I received this product a couple of days ago. I have one of their competitors already. This one is so much better. Very quiet. I am always cold at my office. This machine helps me with my edema and improve my body temperature. I am sold. What a neat gadget. I enjoy that it totals how many steps I have done for the day. Gives me a goal.
