Siting at a desk all day as I and many others do, is definitely not anything close to a physical activity. We sit pretty much in one position, rarely moving anything but our hands and fingers. But I’ve recently found a great new chair that pretty much brings the workout to your desk. Yep, you heard me right!
The Swopper offers you the ability to move freely and helps to improve posture, back pain, circulation and strengthen core muscles by mimicking your spines natural movement. And of course, it helps you to burn calories too!
Did you know that extended sitting has been found to a leading cause to serious health issues? Well research shows that “sitting disease” can play a role in high blood pressure, obesity, muscle degeneration and chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
The Swopper is available in 5 colors – black, red, blue, grey and orange, so it fits nicely with any decor. I chose the black simply because our current office chairs are black and I wanted it to all match. But if I had my own separate office space, I’d totally throw in a splash of color with the blue or orange one!
The Swopper can also help with the following:
- strengthen your back
- train your muscles
- breathe deeper
- improve your concentration
- stimulate your circulation
The spring action allows for easy movement and is great while I’m working. I no longer feel like I’m literally “sitting on my butt all day”, but am instead getting at least a little bit of exercise. My whole family enjoys the chair and the boys especially love it when they’re gaming it up on WoW!
