Students' bodies were made to move, not sit at desks for hours at a time. Sitting produces back pains, headaches, and listlessness. Students become less productive. BUT how are students supposed to combat this? What if the students could actually work out while doing schoolwork or read? While they won't get to the Olympics this way, doctors say any amount of exercise helps. With these desk exercise bikes, students will have an opportunity to continue with their school work AND get some exercise at the same time. My goal, to have a fit body and a fit brain.
