A Walking workstation? No, you are not going anywhere on this workstation, but a walking workstation is a popular practice in modern ergonomic offices. While you might be familiar with the term treadmill for desk or under desk foldable treadmill, you also understand that you cannot walk on a treadmill all day while working. For a human body, rest is essential, and to prevent overexertion, a walkable treadmill is to be used for a certain hour only, whereas the rest of the time you spend sitting in front of your desk.
But are you going to get off your treadmill ten times a day to move it out of the way and place a chair instead? Well, that sounds like extra work only. Hence a treadmill chair. A chair for a treadmill desk is the simplest solution to saving space, time, and energy. A treadmill office chair, also known as a treadtop stool, rests on the top of the treadmill belt, and you can easily enjoy sitting and working on it for hours when you are not walking on the treadmill. But what makes the right desk stool for a treadmill, and what are the top options for an over-treadmill chair? Below is our list of top picks for a treadtop seating solution.
