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

If you’re not sitting cross-legged on the work PC. You’re doing something wrong

Care to explain? Just a joke or is there actually a benefit to it?

I just move my body a lot while working 9-5. cross-legged, backrest to the left, front or right, kneeling on the chair, loitering like a bored teen, perfect 90° angles - everything but hunched over. In 14 years of doing this I’ve never had any back problems, despite being morbidly obese and not going to the gym.

I think you have other problems though. Hope you get that sorted out so you'll love longer, mate. ❤️
