ASK HN: Sedentary Effects of Remote/Office Work
- skotchpine 6y agoI've been programming professionally for only 5 years or so. I often feel sluggish after work, and I think it's connected to how long I sit without moving. Now I try to do something physical every hour, and I've been feeling more energized. We (LinkedIn below) are building a Slack app to enable working teams to be active together. The teams using our Slack app are on fire so far! We're wondering: can we hijack the shift to remote work to build new habits and work culture? Also: what negative effects have you noticed from a shift to remote work, and how do you counteract them?

- nellycheboi 6y agoWe were working together on my first job. This started with an hour glass; our team did pushups every hour. At my next job, I had the whole company doing it.
