DIY Treadmill Desk: Exercise at Work | The Carpenter's Daughter

March 2020 Treadmill Desk Update:
After using this treadmill, the motor only lasted a month. I've now upgraded to a LifeSpan TR2000-DT3 after asking if the Treadmill Desk Store company if they'd give me a little PR discount as I knew I had to update these links. It is MUCH better for the job and I will be sharing my slight desk adjustment very soon:

Last week, I decided to put an end to being on my bum almost all day as part of my job. You may have heard the line floating about that sitting is the new smoking. So, I decided, for 2020, that I'd make my own DIY treadmill desk.

The total spend was £264, excluding tools. I've tried it two days in a row and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I've reached 20k steps each day and I was still able to do all my usual desk work... replying to emails, messages and editing this entire video on there too!

However, I've read it's not for some people regarding multitasking. I was worried about that too, but I've only been doing 1kmph and occasionally 2. And already, I can tell my thighs are toning up.

Anyway, here's a list of what I used. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases made through links
