We care about the health of your back: standing work

After quite a long break, I went back to a sports club and there is a fully felt the "charm" of the work sitting. Despite the fact that I pretty much go with the child, yet most of the time I spend sitting at a computer. It was only in training, I felt like my back hurts, how it has become a "wooden". About the hands, I generally keep quiet.

And, as always, the universe heard my moans and tossed an interesting article about Gina Trapani work at the computer while standing.

Gina Trapani - technical writer, and web developer, most of their working time is spent sitting at the computer. In his article on Smarterware she talks about how she joined the computer stand.

As already known, with long sitting at the table in the lower part of the body blood circulation, women there may be problems with the veins on the legs (especially in the pose of "foot to foot"), as well as disrupted small bodies pelvis. None of us are sitting at the table perfectly correct, therefore, in addition to all the suffering back and neck. And behind us all the organs of the "head". On the side we are like vultures sitting at the table - the neck stretched forward, his back hunched often, swollen feet, the priest takes the chair shape.

Gina has altered your desk so that you can work for him standing.

At first it worked, and then sat down again standing for several hours. Legs aching back and neck too. But gradually rebuilt body, correct posture. Plus, working standing up, we also burn extra calories.

But here I would like to make a brief comment. The fact that work all the time standing is not very useful. For example, hairdressers often have problems with their feet due to the fact that they spend all day on their feet. As for those who virtually all of their time behind the counter. Therefore, in my opinion the ideal workplace - when it is possible to alternate the work for them while standing and sitting. Firstly, the health of the back and legs is useful, and secondly, to switch the brain and burn calories.

Especially advanced work on the computer is not standing, and treadmill. But for me personally, it is almost impossible task.

for computer work while standing - quite an interesting experience. But what is more interesting - it is how many people will decide on it, and what are the results.
