Standing is Better Than Sitting

7/15/2010

Standing desks
The New York Times recently had an article about adjustable-height desks, and how many people prefer to stand while working at a computer for some of the day as opposed to sitting in one position all day long. I am a believer in this alternative setup, and plan on buying the Salli Saddle to help unlock my tight groin and hip-flexors (let me know if that was too much info.) and am thinking of using an adjustable height desk to allow me to move freely.

If you've never thought about your sitting situation, just think about how many hours a day you sit in the same position, and how that posture could be hurting your lower back, making your head jut forward, and keeping your hips flexed all day long. If I'm going to spend eight or more hours a day in one position, I'd rather be either laying down, like in a bed, or being upright by either sitting in a saddle chair or standing. It's little changes in your lifestyle like this that can make huge differences down the line.

Don't knock it until you tried it!
