Twas the night before Easter and all through the house....

Tonight I wen to the gym, a bit odd for a Saturday night, and something unusual happened. For the first time ever, I was all alone in the weight room. It was a bit strange to be in a 2,000+ square foot room, all alone. It was also pretty nice as I could go to any machine or bench or bar whenever I wanted. Soon enough, the room had a half dozen people in it though and the moment was gone.

Many of my readers know that my posture is not the best. Some times when I'm working at my desk, I can become almost completely horizontal in my chair....not a good sight. The other day I read on Terri Terri's blog that she was using an exercise ball as her office chair. Hmmm, I don't think I could slouch if I used a ball as a chair. That could be good. I'm also pondering a kneeling chair. Both are outlined in this article. Not sure which way I'll go, but I'd love to hear your comments.

Happy Easter to everyone and I hope you have a safe and festive day!!!

Happy Easter! My brother uses the kneeling chair and has been for about 22 years to be exact. He swears by them. I often pondered getting the exercise ball chair myself. There would be some crazy mishap with the exercise ball chair for you I'm sure. It would make for a good blog entry!

Thanks DB! Cool. He seems to have good posture. Hmmmm, one vote for the kneeling chair and one for the ball. Maybe I should get both.....

I'm ignoring your comment about the ball mishap! :-) You're probably right though.

Half the people in my office are sitting on these exercise balls. I'm thinking one of these days I might organize an exercise ball/dodgeball tournament. Those balls are big. We might have to move up to the 12th floor conference room to accomodate our space needs.
