Open your laptops and put on your favorite pair of walking shoes, because we’re taking a trip to (drumroll, please) absolutely nowhere but your WFH station (or home office, if you’re lucky). If you’ve been on TikTok at all recently, you may know that #hotgirlwalks (a term for walking on a treadmill or walking pad at home coined by TikTok user Mia Lind in 2020) are the fitness trend of the moment, and I am all here for it.
This wellness movement encourages people to go on walks while working, watching TV, or scrolling through their phones to release endorphins, boost their daily step count, feel better physically and mentally, and even help boost productivity. Unfortunately, walking outside to reach your movement and step goals isn’t always an option when you’re working a full-time job, but fortunately, there’s a workaround: walking pads for under the desk.
