♪ Bob and Brad the two most famous ♪
♪ Physical therapists on the internet ♪
- Hi folks, I'm Bob Schrupp, physical therapist.
- Brad Heineck, physical therapist.
- Together we are the most famous physical therapists
on the internet.
- In our opinion, of course, Bob.
- We're also the most unattractive.
Tell you what we're gonna talk-
- Speak for yourself.
- Talk about 10 features your standing desk should have.
So if you're looking for a standing desk,
we think you should at least have these 10 features,
maybe more, but we've been in this business
for quite a while now,
and we've been using their desks
for over four years for our back.
- I've got two of them at home.
- Yup. I do too.
So we'll talk about that.

This week, we are giving away
a Thermotex Far Infrared heating system.
- Oh, very nice, very nice.
- Very nice.

Go to Twitter, Instagram, or Tiktok
if you want a 60 second version of our program.
And what else do we have, Brad?
- Well, we do have a podcast
and the podcast are even better than our YouTube channel.
- Well, they go on the YouTube channel and on the podcast.
- Yeah, but we've got good guests.
Really intelligent authors and whatnot.
They're wonderful.
- All right, let's start with number one feature
you should have.
This goes without saying,
but you wanna go with a reliable company.
One that the desk should work, it should work well.
We tried an inexpensive one, one of those manual ones.
Remember that, Brad?
- Yep, they're spring loaded.
You squeeze and it unlocks, and they go up and down
and they're okay, you know?
- Well, we tried one that some other company had.
Remember we hurt our back trying to get it down.
- Well, I wasn't gonna do that.
I didn't hurt my back.
You hurt yours.
(Bob laughs)
I didn't do it.
- Anyway, I have one of the manual ones at home,
and they test it like a thousand times
or something like that.
They said for quality control.
Mine works beautifully.
- You still have it?
- Yeah, after four years.
It's the one I'm using right now.
So number two, you should have
a good reputation of warranty.
Again, this FlexiSpot, you know,
we're gonna put a little plugin for them.
They've been an international leader,
and I think they're one of the main companies
that they have a good reputation
that will talk about warranty.
I think they have a five-year warranty.
You don't seem to know.
- I didn't read the book.
(Bob laughs)
- So anyway, we'll move on from there.
Number three, you want a choice on desktop shape and size.
So this one actually comes in, it's bamboo,
and it comes in a rectangular shape,
but it also comes in a curve shape.
But in addition to that,
I'm gonna just take this down a little bit.
It has actually a whole bunch of different sizes
I can fit on the same base, Brad.
48 by 24, 55 by 28, 60 by 30,
72 by 30, 78 by 30.
That's quite big.
- Yeah, five-year warranty.
How wonderful.
- All right, I thought I had put that down,
but I apparently didn't.
All right, next thing we're gonna mention
is it actually has a childproof system
where you can lock it.
- Yeah, so if you've got a little five-year-old
like I have a five-year-old grand kid.
I know if he saw me use this,
he would be up pushing these buttons to make it work
and he may drop it down and then get into the papers.
- Well, he might get hurt, you know?
- Well, we've got a system for that.
- Yeah, we've got a feature for that too.
Yeah, let's show that right now.
So it also has a protection device.
Watch what it does to the-
- So he put it on a memory hold.
So it's gonna go down into a seated position.
You don't have to sit there and hold the button.
But if someone is there like this.
See it stops.
It senses it hits resistance and stops,
and goes back up.
So if Bob has his head in there
instead of this Viking football, either way it's-
- I was thinking about it.
Put my head there.
- It's a safety feature that works.
- So it prevents potential injuries.
I also wanna show this, Brad.
I'm gonna go up to level two.
- Sure.
I just put these levels in just default
to any arbitrary levels for two.
- Oh, I'm sorry, I wanted to go up to standing
- Oh yeah, go back up.
- Because I want to show...
Look at this.
These are nice curved features.
No, you know there's less likely to get hurt by a child.
- Yeah, they're not square corners.
They're a rounded radius,
and they're stronger this way too, I think.
- Yeah, but I think they're beautiful.
- I'm glad you appreciate it.
- All right. What else, Brad?
What do you call this device now?
- Oh, the baffles.
There's a sheet metal baffle.
So it's solid.
It protects all the electronic wiring
as well as the box that has the controls.
And it's important to have that 'cause-
- Well, that you don't have
the unsightly cords hanging out, you know what I mean?
- Yeah, I'm more concerned about someone
getting their foot or hanging (indistinct).
Yeah, but you're right, it's unsightly.
And anyway, you do have to have this.
You've gotta plug it into somewhere.
- So we got heights all the way.
It goes from 23.6 inches all the way up to 49.2 inches.
We went all the way up, didn't we?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that's all the way up.
This is all the way up.
- To the highest level.
- Now this thing will hold 250 pounds
This one's got a dual motor.
So it really-
- In other words, each upright has a motor
that controls it and they work together.
They're synchronized.
It's a nice deal.
- Yeah, it makes it a lot more stable.
- This I can say is commercially built
for someone in the office that use it every day.
You know, if you have it in your home,
it's gonna, you know-
- Well, you know at the end we gotta show you on it, Brad.
- Well, of course, Bob.
- What do you weigh?
340?
- Yeah, 300 pounds, yeah.
No, I'm down about 175 right now.
- All right, well, we gotta-
- After our workout.
- We gotta put some weight on you then.
All right. I think that's it, Brad.
- Oh Really? - Yeah.
We got anti-collision child lock.
We got the cover, the cables.
Oh, it does have a, what do you call that port?
- USB, Bob. - USB port
- That's something that's in computers now.
It's a common outlet.
- It's nice.
Running the side of the panel here.
- Let's get this football out of here.
This Viking football.
- All right, we'll show you at the end.
We'll show you Brad going for a little ride
and check it out.
We'll have a coupon below.
You can actually get 30 bucks off this table.
- Oh really?
- Yeah, and-
- You have to tell them, you know, Bob and Brad,
or is it one of those deals?
- No, click through the coupon, the link.
- Oh, we got coupons?
- Well, kind of like coupons.
Plus also, I don't know the name of this
'cause they're gonna change the name.
They haven't decided yet what they're gonna call it.
- Well, it's that new, right?
- Yeah.
- Yeah. That's nice.
Did you mention that you got this bamboo?
- Yeah. Nice finish.
- Well, you should put it down so they can see the top.
I got to climb up on there anyways.
I'm not climbing up on the high level and fall down.
- Yeah, well put you right up to the ceiling.
- I'll sit down and put my head through this ceiling.
That'd be kind of fun.
- Okay, Brad's gonna work out on the table.
He seems to apparently like this.
Let's see how it does.
- Bob, I have to highly recommend
that people do not do this.
- Yeah, that's right.
- This is strictly for- - Do not do this at home.
- Demonstration in our studio.
Do we have insurance for this Bob?
- You know, it's interesting.
You can actually require,
it can require a lot of weight
if you have a lot of computers on there, you know?
- Well, sure.
I mean, if you've got a computer that's heavy,
it's pretty old, I think.
- You wanna have it go up or down again?
- Sure.
I think, oh, you are going-
- Oh, I'm up by the ceiling.
- Yeah, you're as high as you can go.
Now we'll take you.
Brad, I think you could fly.
- Now, the thing about the...
There's a sensitivity level that you can set her,
and now it's at the highest sensitivity.
- Right, so when it hits something,
it pops back up a little bit.
- Yeah, without much resistance.
For whatever reason, there's three levels on that.
I don't know if that's needed.
- All right, get off the table, Brad.
Get off the table. - All right, be careful.
- Remember Brad and I can fix just about anything.
- Except for-
- A broken heart.
- Yeah, and like we always say,
be careful in everything that you do.
