Gadget Spotlight: FitDesk Puts Holes All Up In Your Balance Ball

You’ve seen the scene in The Office where Jim Halpert pops Dwight’s exercise ball, right? If not, we’re so cool, we’ve included it below. Perhaps he was on to something: dudes should only rock the balance ball at the gym. The guy in the next cubicle doesn’t want to visit your cave right in the middle of your 476th bouncing pelvic thrust. That’s sick, man.

The guy in the next cubicle doesn’t want to visit your cave right in the middle of your 476th bouncing pelvic thrust.

The guys over at FitDesk have put together a frankenstein contraption that seems to have everything but a fold-out ash tray for your afternoon cigar. It’s an exercise bike plus laptop stand. This invention came about after the Dial ‘n’ Bounce Trampoline for Outbound Sales Ninjas and the Row ‘n’ Code for IT Professionals were laughed off by 99% of gentlemen in test groups.  With the FitDesk, you have a civilized way in which can work while you work out.

Check out the guy below. He’s in the middle of a divorce, and he’s not letting it affect his day job, so  he decided to set up in the middle of the driveway before his wife tried to pull into the garage:

It’s up to you whether or not you want to peddle your crotch into bruised oblivion while you wear your tasseled loafers or your tennis shoes. It’s also great for gamers, since once you’re locked in, it’ll blow up your belly fat like the meanest sticky grenade in Halo. Plus, there doesn’t seem to be a hidden trough or pouch for Doritos or whatever your fix is.

It’s for women, too. This lady got so thrilled by her bike that she can’t even sit on it anymore.

In all seriousness, (we’re only capable of remaining 20% earnest) you can check out this and more quite creative solutions to fighting the 10-hour stints in rolling desk chairs at their website here.
