Black Everything Friday

These days, many of us spend long hours sitting. We work at computers from morning until evening, and then sit again during our commute, meals, and free time. Ergonomics means setting up your workspace so it suits your body, instead of making your body adjust to your furniture.

Why does a standing desk make a difference?

Our bodies don’t do well when they sit still for 8 or more hours every day because it’s natural for us to move and use different muscles. Since we often go against this natural need, it’s important to avoid problems from sitting too long and find home office solutions and ergonomic support.

When you can adjust the height of your standing desk, you can spend some time each day not just sitting but also standing. And if you don’t like working while standing, use your sit-stand desk for another important reason: adjust its height to fit you when you sit, after changing the height of your office chair, so you don’t hurt your back and neck or slouch while you work.

Why is an ergonomic office chair worth having?

The office chair is just as important ergonomic product as the height-adjustable desk. Being able to change the height of both the desk and chair helps you sit all day without feeling stiffness or pain in your back, shoulders, or neck.

There are also chairs designed differently from traditional ones, made for people who prefer active sitting during the working day. This chair wobbles and encourages you to sit with a straight back and move so you don’t feel stiff.
