After a study showed that people who fidget tend to weigh less, some office managers decided to replace chairs with treadmills inside cubicles.  This helped workers to exercise at their desks without thinking about it (much the same way that some people pace or tap their feet while working), and burn anywhere lose weight from 100 to 130 calories by the hour.  It helps workers feel more energized and less stressed, and reduces the number of sick days that they have to take due to illnesses related to weight.  This is a great solution for those who want to become fit but do not know how to lose weight or who do not have time to exercise the way they should.

Several workers reported that walking while they work actually helps their concentration.  They also say that they are less distracted during calls, and that they are able to get more done once they figure out how to maneuver around their desks with the treadmill attached.
