- <p> Corporate climbers need brains to get to the top of the
- ladder, but muscles may help too. A new workout machine called
- the Executive Power Chair is designed to help executives pump
- up without leaving their command posts. The power chair enables
- desk jockeys to do more than 20 different upper-body exercises.
- Built to look like classic office furniture, the power chair
- has foldaway exercise handles and "cashmere-like" fabric. The
- price: $1,199 for the deluxe model and $499 for one more
- suitable for junior executives. The power chair is made by
- NordicTrack, which is best known for machines that simulate
- cross-country skiing.
