Problems solved by technology

The lifestyles of most sedentary office workers lead to long hours of little movement, especially on the lower body, resulting in health and muscular discomfort, including obesity.
Prolonged immobilization or sedentary position may not only generate discomfort, especially on the lower-body, but increasing medical studies are reporting the close connection with health risks such as blood circulatory difficulties, obesity, deep-vein thrombosis, varicose vein, mental state decrease and / or other problems.
. . etc., which leave the passengers in immobile situation under a limited space for extended hours, accelerating fatigue, swelling of the lower body and discomfort.
However, most prior art describe devices that require certain space for exercise or a subject to adjust the exercise device to.
Moreover, considering that the majority users would use these devices in the office or in a compact space, such as in an airplane, little but efficient movement for the legs is important.
Otherwise, some prior art describe devices that may be carried for travelling but is rather heavy and does not allow leg exercise, which is the most immobile part of the body when working sedentarily or traveling in a compact space.
