JANUARY 2020, ISSUE NO. 3 BEAT FATIGUE AT WORK WITH SIT-STAND MDRN LIVING REAL ESTATE DESKS Your guide to a modern lifestyle in a fast-paced city ~   GYM IS MY OFFICE  ~ WHAT'S IN THIS ISSUE ON SALE - 1 TRENDY INTERIORS - 2 Without knowing how to use a height adjustable desk correctly, you may not be leveraging this wonderful change in your office furniture to the fullest. Here are 10 great tips: Come up with an easy standing routine to begin with. For example, you could start with standing for 2 minutes after every 20-30 minutes of sitting. Remember to ease into the whole sitting- standing thing. Adjust your desk to a height that works for you. Keep the height too high, you’ll find your wrists working too hard for all the desk work. Keep the height too low, you may find yourself slouching against the desk.

  2. If you work on a computer or laptop, make sure that the screen is positioned comfortably for you to work. It should be positioned at a distance of 20 to 30 inches from your face. The screen’s top should meet your eye level with only a slight tilt upwards. Use an anti-fatigue mat to stand on. The soft surface of the mat will provide nice cushioning for your feet, allowing you to stand cozily for longer periods. Maintain a good posture while standing. If you end up standing but leaning on your desk, you’re not doing much good to your body. Try to stay in a neutral position as much as possible. Go back to sitting down for some time if you feel too tired to maintain a good standing position. While sitting too much is bad, standing too much won’t do much good either. When in the standing position, try to incorporate some light movements to keep the blood flowing in your muscles. Do some shoulder rolls, calf raises, quad stretches, standing twists, etc. Be mindful of the footwear that you wear to work. Use ones that are lower-heeled, comfortable and supportive. Step away from the desk whenever you can. Take a short walk, do some active exercises, or climb up and down staircases. This will help you stay active physically and mentally. Get a leaning stool if standing proves to be too much for you, or if you’d like to start alternating between standing and leaning and sitting.
