Amazon is selling a desk that doubles as an exercise bike

The pandemic has forced the majority of us to work from home, and as a result, we're not getting nearly as much exercise as we used to, but that could now be a thing of the past thanks to a very innovative desk!

Now, offices aside, another essential place that's closed for the foreseeable future is the gym, forcing many of us to set up the equivalent of what we used to enjoy at home.

So why not combine your need for a home office and keeping fit with this desk that doubles as an exercise bike?

Available on Amazon, the Yo-Yo Desk Bike is the pandemic office-exercise solution you didn't know you needed... until now.

The bike's product description on Amazon reads: "Introducing the award-winning Yo-Yo Desk Bike. The perfect solution to convert passive time into active time during meetings, emails, talk time or video time and burning calories in your office or home."

The product description continues: "Avoid the health risks of binge sitting and transition easily between sitting and pedaling. Allow your body the movement it needs whilst you work in perfect ergonomic comfort.

"Four durable caster wheels with 360-degree swivel allow you to move Yo-Yo DESK BIKE easily from room to room. Easily move the desktop forward, backward, up or down for ergonomic comfort. Join the workplace revolution for healthier active working!"

This is what one happy customer had to say about the Yo-Yo desk bike, which has received unanimous five-star reviews: "So pleased with this product and the promptness of delivery. Brilliant for anyone who works from home or is looking for indoor cardio. Works as an exercise bike or as a light desk activity."

"Recommended for gamers, instead of a laptop it is easy to put your mouse and keyboard on the table and mount monitors at the right height on shelves or any other surface. Absolutely perfect. Quiet, secure, really cannot recommend enough."

If this sounds like the home office solution of your dreams, the Yo-Yo Desk Bike is currently available for preorder on Amazon and costs a very reasonable $494.19 (£399.95).

This comes as another company released a "StayTheF***Home" cardboard desk so people can work from home.
