In the current Coronavirus climate, corporations and schools have been forced to adapt to quarantining. While essential workers are still out working, a huge portion of the population is staying home, doing their work from a desk where they sit for hours on end. Whether it’s walking between classes or going shopping in the mall, the walking we do on a day-to-day basis aside from any working out typically adds up to several miles. Without that usual movement, it's easy to accumulate pent-up energy, which makes concentrating at a desk extremely difficult.
In an attempt to solve this issue, which affects so many people, there have been a few products created, but none of them are all-encompassing. The market is familiar with fidget toys, but if we're being honest, for most people, they are more distracting than anything else, and they don't get to the source of the issue: pent-up energy. There are other products meant to keep you moving while working, such as standing desks or chairs with exercise balls, but these make marginal improvements at best in terms of keeping active and releasing energy. Enter... Desk Pedals! Desk Pedals are essentially stationary bike pedals that can be placed anywhere, without needing a connection to power. Desk Pedals allow users to get exercise under their desk to stay moving during class or meetings. This allows maximum concentration with minimal distraction, and as an added feature, even has a built-in fan powered by pedaling to prevent sweating and overheating. Get exercise, release energy, stay concentrated.
