    LOL! you are funny but you are totally right. Unfortunately, I have a desk job too. I wear my bodybugg and I literally burn the same amount of calories sitting at my desk & resting/sleeping.

    Obviously you don't use a shake weight and a thighmaster at your desk.

    This reminds me of a coworker who bought the shake weight and was upset when she got it home and realized that it wasn't battery-operated & you had to shake it yourself!


    HAHAHAHAHA!

    That must be why the Kawasaki plant in town has everyone do calisthenics first thing every day. At least that's what I heard once from someone that works there.


    So no one has that sweet standing desk with some kind of treadmill setup?

    Im interested in knowing your job description if you can do this lol

    I manually *kitten* zoo animals for insemination purposes. I don't spend much time at my desk, but when I'm there, I am shaking that weight and mastering my thighs!

    wow and i thought my job sucked.

    oh, sorry, my bad, you said manually.

    Saliva contaminates the samples. I learned that the hard way...

    Find you a treadmill on Craigslist and some lumber on there too and you are in business!

    Hahaha true. I work at a desk (& love my job) and while I don't workout at my desk, I walk a lot. We have two buildings that are a good distance apart. I also walk on my breaks up and down a hill.

    So funny! I was just looking at some desk exercises. I should just get some free weights and make it happen. Bicep curls, tricep exten, tricep drips off the chair, calf raises. Something is better than nothing. I sit by a bunch of women who have been at my job for a while and it shows.

    I use the shake weight under my desk.
