A lot of people want to disguise a chair in their living room as a piece of gym equipment. Well, not a lot but we think they'd love to have this new chair that burns calories while they just sit on it.

The "Tao Chair" is an exercise chair that's the perfect way to help you out in achieving your exercise goals.

The chair is designed to look like an ordinary lounging chair. It actually helps the user with his or her core, improves posture, reduces stress and strengthens the muscle as well as burning calories.

The chair was developed by Tao-Wellness and was unveiled during the ongoing International CES in Las Vegas. The Tao Chair improves the "unhealthy" way of sitting.

"This concept turns downtime into exercise time. People want to be healthier, but find it hard to find the time, especially after work when they want to watch TV with the family. Instead of eating potato chips while relaxing, you can burn calories, tone muscle and keep the heart pumping," according to company president and co-founder, Philo Northrup.

After sitting down, users push or pull against the Tao Chair's upholstered arms with their legs or arms in any direction. Basically, they have to push or pull against the Tao Chair as it doesn't move, making the users apply pressure.

The chair also has a built-in sensor to show a person how much calories have been burnt. It can also connect to the Tao mobile app where users can see exercises and games to make their workout a little bit more fun.
