The easiest way to step into winter, especially if you don’t have much free time outside of work, is to invest in an under-desk treadmill or walking pad.
A walking pad allows you to walk and work at the same time, provided you have an adjustable laptop stand or standing desk (something many of us have acquired over the years). bad news? A good walking pad doesn’t come cheap. Super high quality ones can cost over $1,000.

However, there are some affordable options on the market, such as the YDZJY Walking Pad Under-Desk Treadmill. Originally priced at $500, it now sells for $265 on Amazon. This is almost 50% off.

This is no basic walking pad either. It features a large LED display that shows your speed, elapsed time, distance walked and calories burned from 0.6 to 3.8 miles per hour. Plus, it holds more weight than other walking pads in this price range, up to 265 lbs.
As a fairly new listing on Amazon (first available in September 2022), this walking pad doesn’t have a lot of ratings yet, but don’t let that deter you from investing. Some people felt uneasy about the lack of reviews, but they said, “10 points out of 10 recommended” and “Very happy” and bought it.

For your safety, it automatically shuts down after 60 minutes, but you can easily restart it if you want to use it longer.
Additional shoppers said the 44-pound machine is “easy to move”, so they simply store it in the closet or under the bed or couch when work is done for the day.
