I've owned a treadmill desk for about 3-4 years. I've pretty much looked at almost all the products in the market related to desktop / standing desk ergonomics, and have conducted my own studies on myself Standing in a standing / treadmill desk is not something you do all day. What it does it give you more oppurtunities for positioning yourself while at your desk. Sitting at a desk only has so many ways of sitting down (foot hammock, foot on desk, foot on footrest, normal position, etc) I currently have about 10-15 variations of sitting / walking / standing up at my standing desk. Differnet foot hold mounting options, different modes of sitting on my varidesk seat, different standing postures. By adding more variants of being at your desk, you can adjust yourself as you see fit depending (1) how long your at your desk at a time(2) what muscles you have currently fatigued (post workout). That and also working out helps too, I do mostly bodyweight fitness. Pullups, squats, body rows, pushups, etc or anything on a suspension trainer What you should buy if your interested in a standing desk is actually either an (1) transformable adjustable standing / sitting desk + a chair or (2) a treadmill desk + a varidesk chair for overall ergonomics.
