It can be time consuming due to the sheer length and duration, but I have found fat falling off in the places I have most issues (lower abdomen, chest, and back). It’s free, it’s super chill, and I have found it clearing my mind too. In combination with more intense regime, I think it is a a necessary supplemental exercise. I think walking outside is probably better (it feels more natural to me at least), but just a plain ol’ treadmill or other cardio machine will probably get those steps up. Its super low-impact, easy, and do-able.

I’m dropping weight and I’m finding my brain rebooting in some places as well. It’s overall super great and I encourage every Hexbear to increase their step count.

    oh interesting so it’s basically just a treadmill without a big frame/handles? I could possibly do that while I work… Compelling idea honestly. Not sure I’d stick to using it but anything’s better than sitting at a desk and then sitting on a couch and not moving at all…

      Yeah I find having workout stuff in the room when I’m watching tv or listening to podcasts or whatever motivates me to workout if only for like 20 minutes just to stay moving.
