male only Treadmill Desk

Thought it might be helpful to share something that has worked out rather well for me so far post-op.

Got inspired by some examples I came across surfing the internet and figured once I had committed WLS it couldn't be a better time to build a treadmill desk. Since I already had the treadmill, building one primarily meant fashioning a desk add-on that could lock to the upper portion of the treadmill and support a keyboard / mouse. Secondarily was finding a decent media stand that could support the componentry desired and raise it to a functional standing height.

Though it would be possible to do computer work on these, I primarily use it for gaming (Xbox / PC) and watching tv / movies while walking.

Certainly helps the time go by and average about 2 hours a day on it currently.

I was wondering how you get in those incredible times on MFP. Good idea, Great Job.

That's pretty cool, I have a elliptical in my family room and have plans to add more equipment but everything is on hold due to my inlaws living down there for now.

This is a sweet setup. If I had a treadmill at home I'd totally rig my gaming PC up to this. Good way to get extra steps in!

Are you kidding me.....when I'm on the treadmill, people are looking at me like they might need to call 911. It's all I can do to remain standing.....

Heh - at the moment almost primarily play a pretty heavily modded version of Skyrim on this. Gives a mildly VR feel when you are walking on the mill and walking around the virtual landscape.
