There was a news segment about a school, or classroom maybe, who have installed stand-up desks. That is, the students stand up at these raised desks instead of sitting down all day. This is supposed to be healthier for you. The students say they focus better. I can see that. One could get sluggish sitting in at a desk.
I think I need one of those stand up desks. I sit down too long. Yesterday I was in bed most of the day because I woke up in so much pain all over my body. Because of that I was sitting in bed. My butt is hurting today. And with the futon I sit on in the family room I can feel the bar underneath the padding. This is bothering me right now.
I will probably go get on the treadmill so I can get some exercise but that has been contributing to my fibromyalgia pain. Maybe I'll walk slow and not look at the numbers. I can't be on the internet though because we have a power issue wherein the treadmill drains power from our modem. The modem doesn't go off but the internet does. I can only do this when no one else is online whether it be computer, video games or Netflix. With both girls home now, times are limited.
I really have to stop sitting on my butt all day long.
I have seen some articles about stand up desks and desks attached to treadmills. I made my own by putting boxes on the counter until I found something that was the right height.
I have seen some stand up tables in classrooms. They have stools the right height so students can stand or sit. They can also choose to sit in a regular desk. I find it helps to vary my position. Not stand all the time and not sit all the time.
