I'm definitely a fidgeter and its great until your wife threatens to kill you because you make her nervous :lol:

But seriously, fidgeting has been discussed a lot by Jeff under the rubric of NEAT and it does seem to contribute a lot to those that may be sedentary in nature.

But I wonder what it does for those of us that also have what is called today as RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome). My wife complains about that as well, but really is very understanding... :nod:

My husband calls it "Jimmy Legs" and I drive him nuts with it sometimes!
