#TAO Chair lets you work out while relaxing in your living room Want the exercise, but can't conjure up the energy to go to the gym?

"The TAO Chair, which we took a look at at CES last week, is designed to provide a dynamic workout for your primary target zones from the comfort of your living room.

TAO-Wellness is developing the TAO Chair as a follow-up to its debut prototype, the TAO Wellshell,

This year's TAO Chair one of the funkiest chairs we've seen in a

TAO's creative chief officer Viktor Kalvachev, points out that the TAO Chair isn't meant to replace a gym or to jack your muscles up.

The TAO Chair coaches you through exercises with the accompanying mobile app, while a built-in, battery-powered digital display shows the calories burned during your current workout

TAO plans to finalize the TAO Chair this year, and Kalvachev tells us that his team is hoping to keep the price below US$1, 000.

The TAO Chair isn't the only piece of exercise furniture out there, and in fact, it has a rather long line of predecessors that includes the Gymygym exercise chair, the GEWOS armchair and the Active Desk.

Unlike many designs out there, however, the TAO Chair takes the seated workout out of the office and puts it in a more relaxing space.

It also promises to be less conspicuous than other exercise chair designs with their mounted rowers and elastics.

The prototype looks like it could just be an artistic piece of furniture. TAO also launched the production version of the Wellshell at CES 2015,

Longer lunch tables better outcomesover the years Sociometric has had some surprising findings. Waber points to his firm s work with a major online travel company.

But they saw that in the cafeteria certain people only sat with three other people (at four-seat tables)

while others sat with 11 people (at 12-seat tables). Those who sat at larger tables were 36 percent more productive during the week.

When the company initiated layoffs during the study the employees who sat at larger tables also had 30 percent lower stress levels than those who sat at smaller tables.

The idea is that these employees Waber says had been able to accumulate larger networks knew what others were working on

Surprisingly after this finding went public some technology firms began installing larger cafeteria tables Waber says.

It s crazy that something as trivial as physical space as the size of the lunch table could affect productivity Waber says.
