Your legs ache if you stand for a long time. Your really need to train to stand for 9 or 10 hours.
I have a high chair so I sit/stand at will. When my legs hurt I sit more.
I think the long term is probably that office work is just bad for humans and shouldn't exist.
I have an adjustable sit stand desk, and I sometimes stand for hours without realising.
I have a friend elsewhere in Europe with a similar office setup, and we remind each other to move the desk up and down during the day ๐
To your last point, I would ordinarily agree but we sometimes 'trap' ourselves playing halo 3 together and what not.
true, 3 hours of video games is still probably better than 30 years of 9 - 5 though. Modern sedentary lives i guess are the real problem
Bingo on that last sentence.
Our bodies are made for walking and running
