"Sitting at desk considered harmful considered harmful"? To be fair, I haven't seen any standing desk articles claiming that standing is some sort of magical panacea that can fully substitute for conventional exercise and a healthy diet, although I'm sure there's at least one out there.
- auctiontheory 13y ago"Sitting is bad for you" is one of the hottest topics in popular health right now. Standing isn't so much a panacea as an alternative to the aforementioned sitting. Our forefathers didn't formally "exercise" in a gym - they moved around. As a practical matter, standing allows desk workers more movement than sitting does.
