You should be standing, not sitting. Sitting is quite detrimental. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l5I4M8BMlE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l5I4M8BMlE

  Standing can be detrimental too if you do it all day: > But that doesn’t mean you should stand all day, either. “Repeated, long-term exposure to standing also has been implicated in the development of serious health problems,” Chambers told us over email. She said that standing for the majority of your workday—as people in retail, manufacturing, and health care do—could lead to degenerative joint damage, muscle injury, and circulatory diseases such as venous disorders, increased stroke risk, and carotid atherosclerosis. So fixed-height standing desk setups—like many DIY kinds—aren’t ideal either if you’re spending long hours working at them. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-standing-desk/ https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-standing-des...

    The article does not back that claim with a citation. One should be active and mobile every day, in my opinion.

      Can be standing without being mobile, but yes standing makes it easier to be mobile

    An adjustable height standing desk is the best of all worlds: you can stand or sit. You can even be mobile by getting a treadmill desk.
