I'm going to start standing-sitting while working. Got a desk that can do it. Was curious how it has affected other people.

12 hour desk job. Had Hermann Miller chairs in office but now at WFH I've only just started to upgrade my chairs. I'm active, I'm a runner...but I feel it. I always feel off following my several shifts. It takes a lot just to get back to baseline.

If I slack on my stretches I definitely notice the lower back especially.

I probably should get a desk treadmill...

A walking treadmill has been great at home for me. Just don't use one while playing FPS games. You know how we like to lean with controllers when doing something extreme in game, like leaning over helps eek a little more from the maneuver? Yeah, that happens when walking and gunning. Let me tell you how instantly aware of your misstep you are when that happens!

12 hours is brutal. Good thing youre active Ive also started with stretching. It does feel better.
