GAMEROX Chair Rocks Gamer Kids Into Shape

December 16, 2008

In an attempt to combat child obesity while obese children combat each other, the GAMEROX chair strengthens your child’s midsection(s) and improve their posture while they play video games.

Meant for children between the ages of 7 and 12, this chair will bend, bob and weave in all different directions, which will strengthen your child’s core balance, tone their muscles, and improve their posture as it forces your child to refrain from slumping and support himself. Much like an exercise ball at a gym. But with safety features such as an emergency brake, a removable tripod leg, and specially designed joints that will keep gamers from being flung backwards.

GAMEROX can also support 175 pounds, and since it’s not yet available for purchase, you still have a little time to hop onto your WoW treadmill to prepare yourself.
