I’m excited to join Heidi from Save More, Spend Less With Heidi and her review and giveaway of the DeskCycle. After reading her review, I think I NEED one of these. What a great concept to be cycling while I work. I’d love to get exercise while sitting at my desk working on my blog! Here is her review, and then enter the giveaway below it.
DeskCycle Review and Giveaway
I have found the best invention ever especially for me! I hate to exercise because I could be doing something productive online, for a virtual assistant job or writing the next big article. However, with all of that writing comes lots of sitting time at the desk, on the couch, chair or wherever I choose to work for the day. However, since getting the DeskCycle I have been amazed at the difference in my quality of work and how much more I am getting done.
I’m not just blowing smoke either, I’ve had the DeskCycle for just under a week and have already logged over 300 miles on it. I’ve met my calorie burn each day of the week and because I’m exceeding my burn goal I have more energy. Usually by 9 am each morning I have done a minimum of 10 miles because I just pedal away as I write. The DeskCycle is relatively quiet so that doesn’t bother me and Desk Display stand keeps me motivated to keep moving.
The day the DeskCycle arrived Mr. SMSL was at work so I decided that I would try to put it together. I couldn’t believe how easy it was with the step by step instructions I was able to put it together in less than 15 minutes. For those of you who know me, know that I don’t have any mechanical ability at all so I was expecting the worst outcome possible. However, when Mr. SMSL got home and checked it over, he was impressed and amazed that I actually put it together right and it was stable. SCORE for DeskCycle and myself as well!
DeskCycle is made by 3Dinnovaitons and is truly the best invention ever. I am more productive than ever, my mood has been better and my energy level is through the roof. Instead of being tired at 2 pm I’m ready to keep working and have been challenging myself to get more finished by the time I have to pick up our daughter from school. It has a magnetic tension control that is very easy to adjust and you can increase the magnetic tension quickly.
I’m still on number 1 but because I made sure and get my 30 miles in a day I’m already loosing weight. I’m staying at a one and 30 miles to get myself into the habit of exercise again, but I’m going to bump it to two early this next week. The DeskCycle is very portable and easy to move so I can even cycle while watching tv. This is the first piece of exercise equipment that I have owned that doesn’t make me feel like I’m exercising. If I can keep up the daily use of the DeskCycle I am positive some of this unwanted weight will be falling off in no time.
