Next Steve Bordley came on to discuss his TrekDesk. According to Dr Fitness this will change the way you work. In his perfect world workers will move from cubicles to treadmill desks like the TrekDesk. Steve explained that by walking at a slow 1 mph pace all day long you can burn a significant amount of calories. For example sitting down burns about 15 calories an hour - standing burns about 50 calories an hour and walking at 1 mph can burn over 100 calories an hour. And at that slow pace you barely even notice you are doing anything - you\'re not tired or sweating. To learn more please go to www.trekdesk.com

Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by thousands of people who are interested in what he does each day. Who would have thought?\\xa0 Anyone can follow the Fat Guy\'s exploits on Twitter.\\xa0 Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek into his food diary. You never know what he\'ll write. Somehow he can stay compliant to writing on Twitter but he can\'t fit in exercise each day. That\'s right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy used to Twitter about it and you can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the Fat Guy. Please go to\\xa0www.twitter.com/fatguy\\xa0 Remember we are now on every morning in Michigan. On radio station WKNW. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy "Wellness Minute." So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station each morning at around 7:40. Each Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy lifestyle, etc. Now these Wellness Minutes are available online.\\xa0 If you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe you can hear us everyday too. Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My kid Max has been doing a radio show called "Kid Power Radio" for awhile now and you should check it out. Tiffany from The Daily Candy called his family friendly radio show "Hilarious!" This is a great show for your kids.
