My Attempt at a Standing Desk
August 5, 2014
I’ve joined the ranks of those using a standing desk. I’m on day two and I’ll say that my legs are not burning as much as I would’ve expected. So far they’re holding up well.
As you can see, it’s not the most sophisticated standing desk. And ignore the general disorganization, my office is still a work in progress. I’m using my grandfather’s old desk raised up as an experiment. I don’t want to invest in a full-on standing desk until I’m sure, and I want to test out a couple options (I’m already considering raising it a few inches).
I won’t go into the potential health benefits that people usually mention in conjunction with a standing desk, but they were compelling enough for me to try it out.
I’m just hoping my feet and legs can hold out until I get used to it. I’ll probably have to invest in a foam mat soon!
