Good news, multitaskers – you can now get your sweat on and do your computer work. SurfShelf is the latest in fitness accessories that let’s you conveniently navigate the web and do cardio. Read on for more exciting features (and reasons you no longer have a work excuse to skip your workouts).
Work, shop, read and catch the latest news with SurfShelf
SurfShelf is a portable polycarbonate tray that attaches to any exercise machine. Fitness enthusiasts can clamp their laptops to the solid but lightweight tray and stay connected while shredding those calories.
By bringing Internet technology to your workout, SurfShelf allows you to weed through your emails, research school or work projects, catch the latest headline news, watch sports games, listen to and watch music videos and your favorite TV shows, find out the weather, and keep up to date on the latest in Web health, fitness, food and entertainment.
Get conveniently connected with In-Gym.com
As if having access to your laptop while exercising isn’t ideal enough, SurfShelf has partnered with In-Gym.com, a one-stop sports, information and entertainment shop that you browse without typing or using a mouse (saving your keyboard from a sweaty mess).
By simply using your arrow keys, you can surf the 84 channels brought to you by In-Gym.com. Organized into seven categories, you can cycle, elliptical or use the treadmill while watching news, sports, entertainment, health and fitness, online TV and, as motivation for your kids to get fit, teen selections.
The key to regular exercise is consistent motivation.
If you opt to skip your workouts because you find them boring, SurfShelf and In-Gym.com may be just what you need to stay motivated to sweat and improve your health.
In response to the growing concern over childhood obesity, these two fit-centric companies are launching a child wellness program called Make Exercise Fun. Their goal is to get SurfShelfs onto exercise machines available to kids – at home and school – and offer fun online games and entertainment as incentives to get kids interested in their health and exercise.
Studies show that US teens spend between 20 to 50 hours a week in front of the computer or television screen. If SurfShelf and In-Gym.com can get teens to spend even one hour exercising while playing on the computer, it is one more step in reducing the number of overweight youth.
SurfShelf is available at SurfShelf.com for $59.99 and will be available at fitness specialty and chains nationwide in September 2008. In-Gym.com is positioned to be the leading provider of Internet technologies and content for the new “online exerciser†consumer market. Pick up a SurfShelf today and start making your workouts fun and more productive.
