Abstract

To achieve a balance between sitting at a desk and exercising, this fitness chair was invented. First, the backrest was replaced with a cylindrical crossbar, which can support most of the body's weight. Second, the side support columns were reinforced to increase the stability of the base, and a footrest was added; placing both feet on the footrest makes the chair more stable, preventing it from tilting backward or shifting. Third, by narrowing the seat and lowering the height, the body is forced to sit upright, preventing hunching. Fourth, a crossbar was added to the footrest to secure the feet, allowing for safe hyperextensions; it also allows for relaxation by placing the feet on the crossbar when tired.
