Does anyone have one of those mini bike pedal set-ups that go under your desk at work? How do you like it? Do you feel like it helps? I'm considering getting one.

    I have one! I even us it on the sofa at home. It works well, keeps me moving, but I definitely take the calories it tells me I've burned with a pinch of salt. It seems high.

    I beg of you to consider your work environment before doing this. We had a woman who had one for awhile, in a cubicle workplace. I almost lost my mind at the squeaking.

    i can't see how pedaling a bike under a desk burns enough calories to be worth the effort. you'd probably burn more calories if you just got up and went for a couple minute walk and stretched every hour.
