New Year, new you.

If your 2016 New Year's resolutions revolve around fitness, then this Under Desk Elliptical is perfect for you. Here are some other fitness ideas to get you going in 2k16:

-Add an upper body workout workout to your morning jog by flailing your arms wildly as you run.

-Drink 1-2 glasses of water with each meal. For faster results, drink 1-2 glasses of water for each meal.

-Use everyday objects around your house as weights. Bottles of laundry detergent, stacks of heavy books, and obese cats are all great for lifting.

-Instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs. Better yet, walk up the down escalator for a couple of hours for a cardio boost.

-Stop using fries and ice cream as your primary source of nourishment.

Buy enough of them you could make a 21st Century general store!

What's the difference between a movie set in 1841 and a move set in 8141? The props. That's it. Just the props. The stories are still just about people on a new frontier trying to find their way through a lawless life and raise a family to carry on their name. It's just that one movie has a six-gun and a pickle barrel made of wood, and the other movie has a laser-whip and an Akro-Mils Storage Tote full of freeze-dried pickle pills.

Remember this when you ask yourself what an Akro-Mills Storage Tote can actually do, because the answer is "anything a box can do, but better." Because even though this tote is tougher, it's not really that much different than the low-tech storage device ever since the first feudal lord needed something for his serf to lift. It's just a better for of box. That's it. Honest.
