WOW, you guys addressed all the salient angles! Totally would love a six month followup with the trio not to judge if they found it no longer worked for them, but to learn from an even longer perspective. I live with multiple chroinic illnesses and have been trying to get my physical condition improving but keep hurting myself accidentally, would love wto walk around outside again but that's a big leap from where I am now. I would like to move my body more with it being wholly enjoyable and safe. tysm for this awesome insight.
my PT recommends a recumbent exercise bike for the potentially similar position i'm in! you can move your body while still being reclined. rollators or other mobility aids could make outdoor walking safer as well. best of luck!
I came here to say the same thing as Riley: recumbent bike!!! This video actually reminded me how excited I am to have mine in my living space again when I move this fall (it’s currently in the basement, and I do not use it when stairs are involved)
Same here! I would love to know if anyone has had issues with their walk pad, especially if one has stopped working. That's what is the hardest thing for me now is justifying buying one when I haven't seen long term use of them. Scared to get a cheaper model but pricier ones will have to be some time before I could afford one.
So I love Sierra’s point about the treadmills handling more weight and one of the reasons is for some thing that most people won’t think of. A lot of people who are physically disabled that use mobility devices may still need their mobility device while they’re walking. For example, my 10yr old uses something called a gait trainer, it’s like a Walker but a lot more supportive. A lot of kids don’t get to walk and use their gait trainer during the winter or when it’s raining because they don’t have room or their homes have carpet. The solution that a lot of people use is treadmills and now walking pads but the pad needs to be wide enough AND for teens and adults it needs to accommodate both the weight of the user and the weight of the equipment.
@ambersmith2612 I was really surprised to find out that my almost 18 year old weights like 175 or so and is considered overweight. She is 5'6 and an hourglass figure but looks healthy. My 20 year old actually wouldn't be able to use a lot of these because he is 250, and I guess I would have to work out in light shorts and a t-shirt since that is what I weighed in with at the Dr last and was just shy of 350? And I guess I would have to lose some before I could wear my weighted vest which is how I've been walking outside lately.
i love when kenzie and jess are in videos, they always seem so sweet and cool and they have such great vibes. it was also so interesting to hear about exercise from someone with chronic pain because you never really hear about it from that standpoint and it made me feel more seen! i love the different perspectives in each video, its always so interesting to see how each person responds to the challenge or different fashion tastes , so excited for the disney bound video! mostly pumped to see what characters you each pick! i always feel like your favorite disney characters say so much about someone's personality! Obsessed with the recent content, love you and the team
I love that you are including team members in your videos now so that we can see a bunch of different perspectives. This was a great one to see three different angles of the same thing for three different work/life situations and opinions!
🕺 It would be so fun to see you guys talk all together at the end about your thoughts-almost podcast-style. I feel like the back and forth of conversation could really bring up new points and connections that you might not touch on otherwise!
I got a free Fitbit through a study at my college and definitely got to a point where I would get irritated when it died or I forgot to wear it because I’d be like nooo my exercise didn’t count. It’s been broken for a few weeks now and I’ve realized that it’s good to remember that the exercise is for how my body feels, not the number of steps/distance I walked in a day.
I'm not gonna lie, I thought this video was going to bore me since I'm not super interested in treadmill desks, but I clicked it anyway. 😂 I was actually very invested in all of your different experiences and opinions! I've really been loving this new format with team videos where multiple people are involved, it's taken the channel to a whole new level! 🕺
Jess with the IRL experience. I really love her honest recap of the month. I feel like I’d be a “Jess” if I got the treadmill. I love the idea of using one but I’m afraid I’d disappoint myself if I didn’t use it “enough”.
I felt the same about the gym, but one day I went and the goal was to not have any expectations, I was there to learn to enjoy it… I’m three weeks out and I kinda crave going. I haven’t seen any results, but I honestly enjoy going, I think because there’s no end goal.
I love that you focus on the real purpose of exercise and not on calories and weight loss! It honestly means so much to be able to watch without feeling guilty about current life styles/weight/food choices/etc. Thank you for being so welcoming and so kind to your audience in so many ways. I've been watching a while now (mostly from a different account I recently deleted), and you've helped me through my recent ED relapse. Keep up being your amazing self! You are truly such a pure hearted influencer, and I admire that
@@DearMyRachel update. Got my treadmill on Friday and I am addicted. I’ve done 3 miles in the Am and 3 miles in the PM everyday since I’ve received it. So happy with my purchase. ☺️
I didn’t think I’d like the incorporation of your friends as much as I do. It’s great to see these tests from different perspectives and I love seeing your fashion videos on different body types and different preferences! Plus your friends are so funny and lovely
loving that you’re including your besties ever since you got back from maternity , so inspiring and brilliant to always see more then on opinion the effort is clear, keep shining ⭐️❤
Really love the perspective Jess had on using this late at night. I too don’t feel comfortable walking at night plus my gym closes early so this would be a great option. And love that it fits under a bed for storage! Forgot to add… 🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽
Im on my feet 6 hours, 5 days a week at work, and in my head that’s not “exercise” or “moving my body” that’s just going to work and doing all my little tasks I need to do. But then I have to remember that most of my work day *IS* movement. I spend the majority of those 6 hours walking back and forth sorting clothes and organizing things as well as working my arm muscles by carrying about 35 lbs worth of clothes at a time because I find almost a necessity in my head to be super fast paced with it and carry more things at a time and that IS movement and it IS exercise. Like what’s the difference between walking at my desk at home vs walking at work? Or what’s the difference between carrying 30lbs worth of clothes on my arm vs 30lb weights? Like this video helped me realize that even though I’m working I’m still moving my body and getting exercise and I’m excited to go into work tomorrow with that mindset.
I like the walking pad/treadmill concept. I have a DeerRun from the website so no issue with weight limit. I find i really like getting up and walking once i wake up for the day before work. I get my water and I play a game on my PS4 while I walk and it makes the time go by so fast. I only walk at 1.6-1.7 speed so its not super fast where I'm tired or it feels like exercise. I said i only wanted to do 30min but I easily go for over an hour every time. Its been almost 2 weeks now and i feel the difference in my mood and body like everyone in the video. Feel better, better mood, my body feels more limber and I don't get tired as easily anymore. I consistently get 10k steps or more in my day but i also have a physical job where I'm also walking everywhere. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to be more active and my biggest advice is to make it fun for yourself.
I am so late watching this but thank you for this video! So much of what each of you shared resonated with me and now I know I want to try this. Beginning to research desks and walking pads to find the right set up for me!
This video really brought me back to remember that movement (not necessarily hard exercise but just body movement) significantly improves our mental health. As a counselor I’m always a little hesitant to recommend my clients increase their physical activity because it can be a touchy subject (as Sierra/Jess/Kenzie all noted) but it’s really such a simple way to feel better during the day. The no pressure, casual, easy movement is the way to go for a lot of people I think.
Thank you ladies for your views on the treadmills! I've thought about getting a treadmill desk for work and while playing video games and after watching this I probably will do it when I get my finances set up to do so. 🕺
I am planning on getting one because I think it might help during in winter when it gets dark early and I am less inclined to walk after work. Also offers an option when it is rainy or too hot to be outside.
I wonder how its going for you all now. Maybe we could get a 6 month update when that rolls around and I'm also curious on other unintended things that have happened that you didn't expect to see that changed in your bodies/mentally?
oh my gosh Sierra! this video is so fantastic, for sure one of my favourites on your channel! i loved everything about it; the pacing, the editing, and the three perspectives were so fun to see (loved seeing Kenzie and Jess vlog their experiences). genuinely such a great video 🥰
🕺🏼🕺🏼 It looks so fun !!! Also i respect Sierra saying it’s okay to do things sat down too. I think people (myself included) are hard on themselves when it comes to times when you feel in your body that you don’t wanna exercise. Listen to your body because it looks after you !
🕺 I loved having the perspective of someone with ADHD represented here, such a valid point of being able to focus better when you do something on the side. If it only wasn't so expensive haha, it did definitely make me wish I had one too. I love the way you structure your videos and how you are so transparent about a real authentic experience and also things like toxic productivity and mental health related issues when it comes to testing things like this, and I loved seeing the highlight be on how it makes you feel and other benefits to this rather than just productivity in a work out sense and weight loss. Always looking forward to these main channel videos and I love the inclusion of multiple perspectives in all of these tests, such a genius idea. Your vlogs also usually make my day, i love both of your channels and your positivity and your attitude towards your body and mental health have made such a positive impact on me, my own self perspective and my relationship with my body. You're a huge rolemodel to me and I'm sure to a lot of other peeps out there as well. Keep up the good work, lots of love and respect, June.
I ended up getting the treadmill Sierra used in this video and I love it so much! Thank you for such a thorough video, I was going to waste money on a more expensive model that doesn't seem to work that well. Seeing three different people using different ones and the different experiences you had (and the mental struggles as well) really prepared me for how I wanted to use this, and I think I'm pacing myself a lot more than I would have otherwise. Thank you for being so honest, it's been so helpful for managing my anxiety (and those restless jitters Jess mentioned), I'm grateful your video encouraged me to take the plunge!
I love this!! I recently just got myself one and its amazing. It makes me feel so much better about myself and life in general. I work 10 hours a day at a desk job so this is literally a life saver. I am confident it will not only make me feel better, but improve my health and quality of my days. So far its something i look forward to daily and id usually be falling asleep at my desk by mid day, being able to walk as i work had given me such an energy boost and it sounds cheesy but the way i think about life is also alot more positive. I truly recommend getting one if you work from home at a desk job ❤
I’m not even half way through this video yet and the only other review of yours I’ve seen was the swimsuit one and I just have to pause and say your review videos are NEXT LEVEL!! I love how you have multiple points of view and how in depth you go on all aspects of whatever you’re reviewing. So helpful and informative so thank you for doing what you do! Ok back to the video 😁
Thank you for all of the great feedback and advice! My boss got me a standing desk and I’ve definitely been thinking about getting an little walking pad to go with it! This definitely helps 😊🕺💃
🕺🕺🕺liked the chill vibes of this main channel video! Thank you for keeping the content and reviews authentic to you all! I truly appreciate the realness
I did the exact same thing as Sierra! started out thinking walking was the focus and tried to go so fast. I had a mental block telling me it was a waste of time to walk slow and I had to be walking fast. I have adjusted to being so much more comfortable walking even down to 1.8 mph just a slow slow pace keeping me moving but able to super focus on my work. it depends on the task for sure how fast I can go, but almost never above 2.5 when I am working!
Watching this while working and walking on my Urevo treadmill desk. I love mine. It’s amazing how many miles you can walk when you would typically just be sitting.
Never seen or heard of this channel before, just popped up on the home page and I have to say this review was WONDERFUL. I’ve wanted a treadmill/desk setup forever and I think this is the tipping point- I WILL be getting one now
🕺🕺🕺I have been WAITING for this video! I’ve been on the fence on getting one and I need a real review and to get not only one perspective but THREE was super helpful! I just bought the one Sierra used and it’s coming on Sunday! Looking forward to trying this new journey! 🕺🕺🕺
Honestly, I really appreciate and enjoy this format of videos with more in depth content. Whether that be a video like this where something is tried for an extended amount of time, or the type of content as the different styles video. I really like the length and the thought behind the content. Go Sierra! 🕺
🕺 Thanks for the reviews. I teach so I can't use the pad for work specifically but I feel like a combo of Jess' use for getting the anxious movement out or Kenzie's quiet time would great when I get home. But I also need a higher weight limit. So the combo of your three experiences is really nice to have. 🕺
Sierra you killed it 🔥🔥🔥 good job. You logged a lot of walking hours. Way to utilize your time to the fullest. Keep it up and remember Just keep moving
I've been considering a sit to stand desk along with a treadmill to help my productivity/energy levels when it's super cold out. Thank you all for the reviews and sharing your experiences!!
NOTE: This product works exactly as described. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxguEIMc_Qwab-3QMTpF6jaRL80hiOOsIN It originally earned a four-star review due to a minor defect (see below). However, the manufacturer's customer service rep (Lita) went above and beyond the call of duty and deserves five stars now. I wish I could give even more!I purchased this item which arrived quickly. Assembly instructions were easy to follow. There was only one problem: One bolt did not screw into the hole properly. I called the company. Their customer service rep (Lita) was terrific! She took all my information and submitted a request to replace the defective part. I'm hoping to finish assembly and start using this treadmill soon. (Fingers crossed...)FOLLOW UP: Lita called back to inform me that the company will send a replacement part AND a technician(!!) to install it properly. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Thank you!!
🕺🕺🕺I was actually already influenced by Sierra when I saw her treadmill in a blog, so I bought a second hand one and I am loving it. Thank you girls! Greetings from Spain!
I love the editing on this video and I love that they are doing 30 day challenges and life hits and they don’t do it for the full 30 days which I love . I think they should do more challenges to show more different perspectives on challenges.
I've had my treadmill desk for just about a year and I LOVE IT! I use it almost daily, usually once or twice a day for 45 minutes. I agree that it definitely helps with the afternoon slump! I wear my slides while I walk since I'm too lazy to lace up sneakers every day!
Great video. I appreciate all the language that emphasizes body care without diet culture. I struggle with getting caught in the data and statistics as well as I recover from me ED. Many thanks for what you do. 🕺
Jess always cracks me up!!! Love her and this is such a good video! I work from home, I’ve been thinking about getting one but worry I don’t have space 😅
This is the most helpful video I've seen on walking pad desk treadmills. It actually answered my questions and was helpful to see each of your perspectives.
I'm on a weight loss journey and I think this is something I'd be interested in trying to aid that as I aim to get a certain amount of steps in a day and more movement. This is a good idea for that as on my days off work I can find myself being very lazy and sitting around a lot
I love seeing the different perspectives. Dying to have someone check your set ups for ergonomics though 😂. I’m obsessed with my treadmill desk- similar to Sierra I definitely think it suits some tasks better than others. I don’t use it in meetings though as the side to side movement can make some people sea sick! 🕺🌊
I loved seeing the different lifestyles using this! I still live with my mom, but this might be something to save for when I move out and have the space🕺
I appreciate you looking for walking pads with high weight capacity. I feel these are perfect for those of us on the bigger side that WANT to walk and exercise, but with busy schedules that don't permit much downtime. I can stand up at my desk at work, but one of these would make a huge difference when I really can't get away from that desk, especially after work. Thanks so much for the time and effort spent making these reviews!
this gym I used to go to had a room where it was a movie theatre and had workout machines in it. I once was watching jurassic park while on the elliptical and used it for an hour and half and could’ve went longer so I can totally see how you get in the trance and lose weight while doing it
🕺🕺🕺 Totally needed this video as Amazon Days II starts tomorrow and I was on the fence about getting one for my return to work after being on FMLA for 3+ months. I'm so excited after seeing and hearing all of your POVs. Thank you, Ladies!
🕺 Fantastic video as always! I love how you touched on toxic productivity and feeling guilty when not using the treadmill, or not tracking the walk like it doesn't count. So many people, myself included, struggle with these feelings and it's so helpful hearing that it's OKAY to give your body and mind a break, that it shouldn't make you feel bad in any way. Loved seeing Jess and Kenzie, they are lovely and it was nice having multiple perspectives that people can relate to. Thank you for the wonderful video!
So I've been using one for a little over a year now and my experience was very similar. I will say that I have a full-sized treadmill with an attachment that acts as the desk. When I first started I did about 2 miles an hour and I would maybe do 3-4 miles a day. As I started getting use to it I found myself wanting to use it basically all the time. My energy was up, I didn't have the same brain fog and I was able to focus more. A year in and I'm consistantly doing 10-15 miles a day and I feel way better. It's really brought me back to how I felt before I had a regular desk job when I was fresh out of college and extremely active. Biggest advice is work up to it at your own pace and walk much slower than you think you need. Also HYDRATE and have a protein bar if you're going to just consistantly stay on all day. You 100% forget you're walking so you will forget to eat and drink.
I feel you Jess. I moved while starting bar prep and absolutely did not have the time or energy to work out 😅 Wish I could’ve invested in one for bar prep! But my coworker is a rabbit who finds treadmill mats and chords particularly tasty 😆
Loved your different perspectives, as a sahm I feel like the opportunities to go for a solo walk can be rare so I appreciated Jess’ point about unwinding before bed. Really thorough insightful video!! 🕺
Incredible video. Thank you so much for focusing on usability and enjoyment and not calories and weight loss. I loved hearing all the completely different perspectives
This was such a cute video & a perfect introduction to your content. I'm hoping y'all do these group try videos together often because I loved this dynamic. And it was informative! Thanks!
I am loving this group format tha you have been doing lately, It feels like a tv show where they follow different people. Besides I am very fond of all of you, so it's nice to see more of the people who are normally behind the camera. The representation this gives, the different angles shown, the the everything is amazing. Keep discoing that disco girls 🕺🕺🕺
I have a treadmill for my desk however I found it difficult and when Kenzie was talking about the height of her desk, it finally dawned on me why I struggle with mine! It’ll be a goal to get an actual standing desk this year! Thanks for this ❤
🕺 I’ve been thinking about getting a desk treadmill but was honestly scared off by the weight limits. I didn’t want to have to go through the mental toll of having to find one just so I could try to move my body more. You’re vulnerability and openness about it all reminds me that I am valid and enough ❤️
🕺🏾I’ve started using the treadmill at my complex and I’m just walking (doing 12.3.30) and I like that it’s something not intimidating so I can just get in the habit of working out and exercising. I think my groove is going in the morning. SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS
I am thankful for this I work at home and I have been going back and forth about one. I was just talking to my mom about it this week. Video was right on time and loved the different perspectives, really helped me make my decision. You and Carrie I can always count on honest reviews, also really enjoyed Jess and Kenzie in the video and their insight
As someone with ADHD, attending a Zoom meeting where someone is walking on a treadmill is hell. Even when I try to look elsewhere, the image of them bobbing up and down at the corner of my eye constantly grabs my attention and it gets my thoughts all jumbled. Please, treadmill desk users, when attending a meeting with neurodivergent people, turn off your camera!
Loved seeing Kenzie in this. She has a great personality and POV. And she has seem to gotten so much more confident since the first vid.
WOW, you guys addressed all the salient angles! Totally would love a six month followup with the trio not to judge if they found it no longer worked for them, but to learn from an even longer perspective. I live with multiple chroinic illnesses and have been trying to get my physical condition improving but keep hurting myself accidentally, would love wto walk around outside again but that's a big leap from where I am now. I would like to move my body more with it being wholly enjoyable and safe. tysm for this awesome insight.

200 pounds is such a small amount of weight too… you don’t even have to be plus size or disabled for that to be too little

Yes! Even just give minute recap with each other.
I appreciate Kenzie asking the things I’d wonder like “can I wear slippers or go barefoot?”😂

This channel has been my comfort channel for so long now. Sierra and the team never disappoint 🕺🕺🕺!!!
that describes sierra’s channel perfectly! comfort channel!!!
Jess with the IRL experience. I really love her honest recap of the month. I feel like I’d be a “Jess” if I got the treadmill. I love the idea of using one but I’m afraid I’d disappoint myself if I didn’t use it “enough”.

My desk treadmill totally changed my life. It helps me get in steps and energy other than sitting all day long. It’s been amazing for me ❤
🕺🏻
I just ordered mine today and have been watching reviews all day. So ready to start my new fitness journey.
@@CandieP you won’t regret it! I’m currently walking on mine now and working. Just did 3 miles!
@@CandieP Which one did you get? I've watching reviews all day today and still haven't decided.

yes, i love that sooo much
bro who tf gets triggered by a treadmill are ya like AAAAAGH when u see a treadmill ir what

The ankle smartwatch strap was so genius. The attempt at better data is super appreciated. 🌸

As a counselor I’m always a little hesitant to recommend my clients increase their physical activity because it can be a touchy subject (as Sierra/Jess/Kenzie all noted) but it’s really such a simple way to feel better during the day. The no pressure, casual, easy movement is the way to go for a lot of people I think.
Thank you ladies for your views on the treadmills! I've thought about getting a treadmill desk for work and while playing video games and after watching this I probably will do it when I get my finances set up to do so. 🕺
I am planning on getting one because I think it might help during in winter when it gets dark early and I am less inclined to walk after work. Also offers an option when it is rainy or too hot to be outside.
Loved seeing Jess in this video 😊 Hearing her talk about late night anxiety and zoomies lol was so relatable 🕺 🕺
Yessss!!! It was so nice to hear her and relate 💖💖
It would be great to get a six or twelve month update as well on things like this
I thought the same thing.
yes please
I wonder how its going for you all now. Maybe we could get a 6 month update when that rolls around and I'm also curious on other unintended things that have happened that you didn't expect to see that changed in your bodies/mentally?
I’ve been waiting for this oneee!! I have lost 95 pounds in a year from my desk treadmill!! I love your videos!!
That’s amazing! So much discipline! You should feel proud of yourself!
How inspiring!! Congratulations!
oh my gosh Sierra! this video is so fantastic, for sure one of my favourites on your channel! i loved everything about it; the pacing, the editing, and the three perspectives were so fun to see (loved seeing Kenzie and Jess vlog their experiences). genuinely such a great video 🥰
The inception of watching this video while working on a treadmill desk 😂
🕺🏼🕺🏼 It looks so fun !!! Also i respect Sierra saying it’s okay to do things sat down too. I think people (myself included) are hard on themselves when it comes to times when you feel in your body that you don’t wanna exercise. Listen to your body because it looks after you !
🕺 I loved having the perspective of someone with ADHD represented here, such a valid point of being able to focus better when you do something on the side. If it only wasn't so expensive haha, it did definitely make me wish I had one too. I love the way you structure your videos and how you are so transparent about a real authentic experience and also things like toxic productivity and mental health related issues when it comes to testing things like this, and I loved seeing the highlight be on how it makes you feel and other benefits to this rather than just productivity in a work out sense and weight loss. Always looking forward to these main channel videos and I love the inclusion of multiple perspectives in all of these tests, such a genius idea. Your vlogs also usually make my day, i love both of your channels and your positivity and your attitude towards your body and mental health have made such a positive impact on me, my own self perspective and my relationship with my body. You're a huge rolemodel to me and I'm sure to a lot of other peeps out there as well. Keep up the good work, lots of love and respect, June.
Kenzie is the realest and I love her personality 😅
I love how this channel is so body-positive and doesn't focus on weight loss or energy units.
Sierra always remains happy and light hearted! (:
I ended up getting the treadmill Sierra used in this video and I love it so much! Thank you for such a thorough video, I was going to waste money on a more expensive model that doesn't seem to work that well. Seeing three different people using different ones and the different experiences you had (and the mental struggles as well) really prepared me for how I wanted to use this, and I think I'm pacing myself a lot more than I would have otherwise. Thank you for being so honest, it's been so helpful for managing my anxiety (and those restless jitters Jess mentioned), I'm grateful your video encouraged me to take the plunge!
The timing of this video was perfect. I’ve been trying to shop around to see which walking pad was best for me. Loved this style of video!
I love this!! I recently just got myself one and its amazing. It makes me feel so much better about myself and life in general. I work 10 hours a day at a desk job so this is literally a life saver. I am confident it will not only make me feel better, but improve my health and quality of my days. So far its something i look forward to daily and id usually be falling asleep at my desk by mid day, being able to walk as i work had given me such an energy boost and it sounds cheesy but the way i think about life is also alot more positive. I truly recommend getting one if you work from home at a desk job ❤
Ahhh!! I’ve been patiently waiting for this video ❤ Thank you for all your content. Your vlogs are like an anxiety pill for me 😊
I’m not even half way through this video yet and the only other review of yours I’ve seen was the swimsuit one and I just have to pause and say your review videos are NEXT LEVEL!! I love how you have multiple points of view and how in depth you go on all aspects of whatever you’re reviewing. So helpful and informative so thank you for doing what you do! Ok back to the video 😁
Just finished the video 🕺🏼😂
Thank you for all of the great feedback and advice! My boss got me a standing desk and I’ve definitely been thinking about getting an little walking pad to go with it! This definitely helps 😊🕺💃
I love the different points of view. Everyone had different expectations, different amounts of time they could do it as well. I love this
🕺🕺🕺liked the chill vibes of this main channel video! Thank you for keeping the content and reviews authentic to you all! I truly appreciate the realness
I love the longer videos. It’s like a Sierra & crew docuseries 😍😍😍
I did the exact same thing as Sierra! started out thinking walking was the focus and tried to go so fast. I had a mental block telling me it was a waste of time to walk slow and I had to be walking fast. I have adjusted to being so much more comfortable walking even down to 1.8 mph just a slow slow pace keeping me moving but able to super focus on my work. it depends on the task for sure how fast I can go, but almost never above 2.5 when I am working!
I love how Sierra looks so happy and full of positive-self love thoughts in the week 3 report.
Watching this while working and walking on my Urevo treadmill desk.
I love mine. It’s amazing how many miles you can walk when you would typically just be sitting.
Never seen or heard of this channel before, just popped up on the home page and I have to say this review was WONDERFUL. I’ve wanted a treadmill/desk setup forever and I think this is the tipping point- I WILL be getting one now
🕺🕺🕺I have been WAITING for this video! I’ve been on the fence on getting one and I need a real review and to get not only one perspective but THREE was super helpful! I just bought the one Sierra used and it’s coming on Sunday! Looking forward to trying this new journey! 🕺🕺🕺
Yayy that makes me so happy to hear!!
Honestly, I really appreciate and enjoy this format of videos with more in depth content. Whether that be a video like this where something is tried for an extended amount of time, or the type of content as the different styles video. I really like the length and the thought behind the content. Go Sierra! 🕺
🕺 Thanks for the reviews. I teach so I can't use the pad for work specifically but I feel like a combo of Jess' use for getting the anxious movement out or Kenzie's quiet time would great when I get home. But I also need a higher weight limit. So the combo of your three experiences is really nice to have. 🕺
Sierra you killed it 🔥🔥🔥 good job. You logged a lot of walking hours. Way to utilize your time to the fullest. Keep it up and remember Just keep moving
🕺 I've got used to seeing you walking at your desk. Seems so natural. 🕺 Good to see Kenzie and Jess.
I've been considering a sit to stand desk along with a treadmill to help my productivity/energy levels when it's super cold out. Thank you all for the reviews and sharing your experiences!!
NOTE: This product works exactly as described. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxguEIMc_Qwab-3QMTpF6jaRL80hiOOsIN It originally earned a four-star review due to a minor defect (see below). However, the manufacturer's customer service rep (Lita) went above and beyond the call of duty and deserves five stars now. I wish I could give even more!I purchased this item which arrived quickly. Assembly instructions were easy to follow. There was only one problem: One bolt did not screw into the hole properly. I called the company. Their customer service rep (Lita) was terrific! She took all my information and submitted a request to replace the defective part. I'm hoping to finish assembly and start using this treadmill soon. (Fingers crossed...)FOLLOW UP: Lita called back to inform me that the company will send a replacement part AND a technician(!!) to install it properly. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Thank you!!
🕺🕺🕺I was actually already influenced by Sierra when I saw her treadmill in a blog, so I bought a second hand one and I am loving it. Thank you girls! Greetings from Spain!
I love the editing on this video and I love that they are doing 30 day challenges and life hits and they don’t do it for the full 30 days which I love . I think they should do more challenges to show more different perspectives on challenges.
I feel like we need a One year followup for this video!
I've had my treadmill desk for just about a year and I LOVE IT! I use it almost daily, usually once or twice a day for 45 minutes. I agree that it definitely helps with the afternoon slump! I wear my slides while I walk since I'm too lazy to lace up sneakers every day!
Great video. I appreciate all the language that emphasizes body care without diet culture. I struggle with getting caught in the data and statistics as well as I recover from me ED. Many thanks for what you do. 🕺
I've been loving the new styles of the main channel videos!
Jess always cracks me up!!! Love her and this is such a good video! I work from home, I’ve been thinking about getting one but worry I don’t have space 😅
This is the most helpful video I've seen on walking pad desk treadmills. It actually answered my questions and was helpful to see each of your perspectives.
I'm on a weight loss journey and I think this is something I'd be interested in trying to aid that as I aim to get a certain amount of steps in a day and more movement. This is a good idea for that as on my days off work I can find myself being very lazy and sitting around a lot
I love seeing the different perspectives. Dying to have someone check your set ups for ergonomics though 😂. I’m obsessed with my treadmill desk- similar to Sierra I definitely think it suits some tasks better than others. I don’t use it in meetings though as the side to side movement can make some people sea sick! 🕺🌊
loved this, but also OML Sierra your hair looks so beautiful in this love your curls!!
I loved seeing the different lifestyles using this! I still live with my mom, but this might be something to save for when I move out and have the space🕺
I appreciate you looking for walking pads with high weight capacity. I feel these are perfect for those of us on the bigger side that WANT to walk and exercise, but with busy schedules that don't permit much downtime. I can stand up at my desk at work, but one of these would make a huge difference when I really can't get away from that desk, especially after work. Thanks so much for the time and effort spent making these reviews!
this gym I used to go to had a room where it was a movie theatre and had workout machines in it. I once was watching jurassic park while on the elliptical and used it for an hour and half and could’ve went longer so I can totally see how you get in the trance and lose weight while doing it
Love the positive vibes throughout this video!! 🤍
Definitely going to watch this at my treadmill desk for the ultimate motivation :)
🕺🕺🕺 Totally needed this video as Amazon Days II starts tomorrow and I was on the fence about getting one for my return to work after being on FMLA for 3+ months. I'm so excited after seeing and hearing all of your POVs. Thank you, Ladies!
🕺 Fantastic video as always! I love how you touched on toxic productivity and feeling guilty when not using the treadmill, or not tracking the walk like it doesn't count. So many people, myself included, struggle with these feelings and it's so helpful hearing that it's OKAY to give your body and mind a break, that it shouldn't make you feel bad in any way. Loved seeing Jess and Kenzie, they are lovely and it was nice having multiple perspectives that people can relate to. Thank you for the wonderful video!
So I've been using one for a little over a year now and my experience was very similar. I will say that I have a full-sized treadmill with an attachment that acts as the desk. When I first started I did about 2 miles an hour and I would maybe do 3-4 miles a day. As I started getting use to it I found myself wanting to use it basically all the time. My energy was up, I didn't have the same brain fog and I was able to focus more. A year in and I'm consistantly doing 10-15 miles a day and I feel way better. It's really brought me back to how I felt before I had a regular desk job when I was fresh out of college and extremely active. Biggest advice is work up to it at your own pace and walk much slower than you think you need. Also HYDRATE and have a protein bar if you're going to just consistantly stay on all day. You 100% forget you're walking so you will forget to eat and drink.
I feel you Jess. I moved while starting bar prep and absolutely did not have the time or energy to work out 😅
Wish I could’ve invested in one for bar prep! But my coworker is a rabbit who finds treadmill mats and chords particularly tasty 😆
Loved your different perspectives, as a sahm I feel like the opportunities to go for a solo walk can be rare so I appreciated Jess’ point about unwinding before bed. Really thorough insightful video!! 🕺
Are you still using the treadmill daily after 6 months?
Incredible video. Thank you so much for focusing on usability and enjoyment and not calories and weight loss. I loved hearing all the completely different perspectives
I can’t wait to see what y’all thought! I’ve been considering trying one of these for a while!
This was such a cute video & a perfect introduction to your content. I'm hoping y'all do these group try videos together often because I loved this dynamic. And it was informative! Thanks!
oops 🕺🏻
Is there a 1 year follow up? We still loving it or not?
🕺 i agree with other comments requesting a follow up! Really liked the organization of this - super helpful.
I am loving this group format tha you have been doing lately, It feels like a tv show where they follow different people. Besides I am very fond of all of you, so it's nice to see more of the people who are normally behind the camera. The representation this gives, the different angles shown, the the everything is amazing. Keep discoing that disco girls 🕺🕺🕺
I have a treadmill for my desk however I found it difficult and when Kenzie was talking about the height of her desk, it finally dawned on me why I struggle with mine! It’ll be a goal to get an actual standing desk this year! Thanks for this ❤
Been wanting to try a foldable treadmill - but have been waiting for this video to see your experience! ❤
My folding walking pad just arrived!
Jess: Make sure I’m fed and watered😂 I love that
Sierra - your hair looks so beautiful and healthy, I've loved watching you continue to embrace your curls since the curly girl method video! 😊
🕺 I’ve been thinking about getting a desk treadmill but was honestly scared off by the weight limits. I didn’t want to have to go through the mental toll of having to find one just so I could try to move my body more. You’re vulnerability and openness about it all reminds me that I am valid and enough ❤️
Are you still using them?
🕺🏾I’ve started using the treadmill at my complex and I’m just walking (doing 12.3.30) and I like that it’s something not intimidating so I can just get in the habit of working out and exercising. I think my groove is going in the morning. SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS
🕺🏽 Thanks everyone for the feedback and the different perspectives!
I am thankful for this I work at home and I have been going back and forth about one. I was just talking to my mom about it this week. Video was right on time and loved the different perspectives, really helped me make my decision. You and Carrie I can always count on honest reviews, also really enjoyed Jess and Kenzie in the video and their insight
I can immediately tell you that 3mph would be too fast to plan to do for hours and while trying to work
First 2 min explaining joint pain and plus size- it's a win!
As someone with ADHD, attending a Zoom meeting where someone is walking on a treadmill is hell. Even when I try to look elsewhere, the image of them bobbing up and down at the corner of my eye constantly grabs my attention and it gets my thoughts all jumbled. Please, treadmill desk users, when attending a meeting with neurodivergent people, turn off your camera!
actual drama queen. ill make sure to turn my camera on every time im in a meeting
