Fitness machine for desk-tied workers
A discreet exercise machine has been linked for the first time to a
computer keyboard or a mouse. It’s called the GZ PC-Sport & Power
Stepper and is equivalent to a brisk walking pace.
It is height adjustable and fits neatly under a desk, can help people
burn up to 400 calories an hour. Keeping moving also helps
circulation, reducing the risk of DVT for the desk bound, as well as
improving general fitness and muscle tone.
The GZ PC-Sport, compatible with all USB plug and play devices,
requires no additional software and combines a variety of modes
and levels:
Trainer mode: stop exercising and the keyboard or mouse input is
paused; re- start stepping and the keyboard or mouse resumes.
Level: no unreasonable physical demands - the user sets a
comfortable level of exercise.
The company behind the machine is Gamercize, whose Director
Richard Coshott said: “The beauty of keeping fit in this way is that the
computer helps to take the minds of reluctant exercisers off the
physical effort they’re making because they can choose an activity
that they enjoy while stepping - whether that is emailing friends,
writing blogs or shopping online.”
The GZ PC-Sport & Power Stepper combination costs £99.90 and
is available at www.gamercize.net
