When I first moved to a standing desk, I was shocked that I (fit and healthy) couldn’t stand straight at the desk for more than an hour or two. Turns out I had what Dr YouTube said was an anterior pelvic twist (standing slouchy, belly out). Making myself stand upright was actually enough to give me an abs workout. I felt from standing the kind of “burn” you get after a load of crunches. Even now, a year later, I still have to work up to doing more than ~3 hours standing if I don’t stand consistently. So standing desks have a great for me. My one concern is that when tired or focused I subconsciously lean at weird angles and put pressure in the wrong places, but hopefully I move frequently enough.
