> In the office my doctor advised me a long time ago to stand up and walk around every hour for leg circulation. I've also avoided carpal tunnel that way, or maybe its the weight lifting. I constantly drink herbal (decaffeinated) tea or water throughout the workday. This forces me to get up and move about every 30-45 minutes or so to either refill my mug/water bottle or use the bathroom. I'm still fairly young (in my late 30s), but have already had a number of issues with joints/tendons. I was approaching carpal tunnel while I was still in college (spent +16 hours a day in front of a computer). Luckily, some light exercise helped back then. Now I've arthritis in pretty much my entire spine. It's a real pain, but getting up and walking around every 30-45 minutes really helps a lot with my pain. It seems to also help with posture as I tend to slouch more the longer I've had my butt in my chair.
