Diclosure: I received a DeskCycle for review purposes and all opinions are my own.
The Deskcycle may just be the coolest thing I have found on the market today. I am the mother of three little ones aged 4, 3 and 5 months and I barely have time to get things done around the house after a long day of work let alone get a great workout in. The Deskcycle is a small, compact bike (weighing just 23 lbs) that slides under your desk allowing you to get in a great workout without leaving your computer. I’m 5’10 and my desk is fairly low but I am able to comfortably pedal this bike without hitting my knees and typing away like normal. The DeskCycle makes it easy to get safe and effective exercise while working at your desk. It’s the only bike that was specifically designed for this purpose. I have been using this bike for about a week now and I love it. All I do is sit down at my desk chair, place my feet in the bike pedals and pedal downward for an effective workout, plus there is also a 5 function display showing speed, time, distance calories and scan. This bike is so easy to use even my 4 year old had fun “working out” on his own time, he said, “Mommy this is really fun”! Keep in mind this is not meant to be a toy for children. The deskcycle comes with a 10 foot cord to allow you to pedal anywhere and it also runs off batteries so if you’re not near an outlet no problem. The Deskcycle is simply genius and I wish I would of found it years ago. Now there is no more room for excuses about not having enough time to get a great workout in. Use the bike while working at your computer, watching tv, eating dinner, playing video games, reading, talking on the phone and any other situations when you are sitting down and your legs are free. Did you know people that exercise before or during work are generally happy, suffer less stress and are more productive? Using the Deskcycle has become a routine for me this past week and I’m able to get a great workout in daily now. Just sit, pedal and work out, how easy does that sound? If you’re looking to burn extra calories the Deskcycle allows you to do this by using the maximum resistance of the DeskCycle which is between 2 and 10 times the maximum resistance of the other pedal exercisers. If you would like your own you can grab a DeskCycle Desk Exercise Bike Pedal Exerciser for just $149! Seriously who wouldn’t want this DeskCycle?
A few highlights I love:
- Lowest Pedal Height
- Smooth and Quiet
- Burn calories while working
- Built to last for years
- Bidirectional pedals
- Discreet and lightweight
- Large comfortable velcro pads
