If tou feel absolutely bored to death a good idea is to stand up, walk around, look out of the window and sit down. Gives you even more focus than staying put.

We tend to move too little anyways.
- highwaylights 4y agoPay the money to get motorised desk legs. I thought it was a really expensive gimmick relative to what it is and I was utterly, utterly wrong. It has changed my attitude to work completely and being able to spend most of my day standing has (almost paradoxically) made it easier to spend a full day at the desk because I don't get bored or anxious anywhere close to as easily. Our bodies aren't meant to be sedentary during our waking hours. I also find myself just kind of walking on the spot sometimes unintentionally when I'm trying to figure something, which I'm assuming is getting me a sliver of cardio in too.
- fsckboy 4y agoyes, i could google "motorised desk legs", but based on your description i imagine your desk is like that motorized alarm clock that you have to chase to shut off, which gets you out of bed? otherwise, i'm stumped... googled it with DDG®, darn, i guess it just means a sitting/standing desk that can raise and lower the top easily
- atoav 4y agoI already have one, I just don't assumed it is the same for everybody else ; )
- andirk 4y agoI sit by a window and stare out of it when I need to wait for something to load. It's atop a tall building in SF so I see the tops of lots of buildings. The other day, someone was on a roof and uncovered a 24 pack of either Heineken or Rolling Rock, both gross. And then fled down the stairway with it!
- matwood 4y agoYeah, I have a rack of dumbbells next to my desk (WFH for the win). I'll get up and run through a 1-2 minute complex. Not enough to sweat, but great for a refocus.
