Walkolution


Sitting at a work station for a longer period of time takes its toll on body and mind. With the start of the summer semester 2022, ThULB has installed two treadmill-related work stations called “Walkolution”, so users can walk and study simultaneously.

Generated by your own muscular work, these noiseless treadmills can be adjusted according to your own ergonomic needs. Power sockets for your mobile devices can be found underneath the desks.

Our “Walkolutions” are a donation by University's Student Health Management department with the intent to promote measures for physical and ergonomic activity.
