We don't all sit a lot. ;) Personally, I've become a huge fan of standing desks. I have a Biomorph desk with a hand-crank adjustment, and my boyfriend has the GeekDesk (motorized up/down...very cool.) We both LOVE our desks.
Added benefits: Fewer back problems, more energy, and much less motivation to surf HN. (We now tend to spend a lot of our spare time exercising or being outdoors due to having more energy and less pain.)
I cannot recommend a standing desk highly enough. Believe me when I say you will hate it for the first 2-3 days. Get through that (take breaks by sitting if you have to), and it will likely be one of the best investments you've ever made.
- jayniz 15y agoHehe, I was waiting for the standing desk folks :-) We actually have a bar in the office that I sometimes use to work, but I never made it through the 2-3 days you say are necessary to appreciate. Will try to make it through (if my knees let me)
- jaypreneur 15y agoI wish I could get away with a standing desk at work. Once I commit myself full time to my business, which will hopefully be soon, I will go with a standing desk. I HATE sitting down all day. It bothers my back so much. I don't get how people do it. I'd even consider a treadmill desk, ha. So you can walk and work at the same time. Good exercise.
