How should you stand at a standing desk? I switched to one this week, but my legs and lower back start hurting after about an hour.
When using a standing desk, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, keep your knees slightly bent, and distribute your weight evenly while maintaining a relaxed posture.
Keep your elbows at about a 90° angle, your wrists in a neutral position, and the top of your monitor at eye level, about 50–70 cm (20–28 inches) away.
Change positions or walk for 1–2 minutes every 30–60 minutes, as alternating between sitting and standing is more effective than standing continuously for reducing fatigue and muscle discomfort.
