Edward Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I was just checking on your Facebook page and I saw your office, http://www.facebook....&type=3 http://www.facebook....&type=3 Which of these pictures is the new look? Is this your home office? Edit: A I see now on facebook timeline the first link is your new office, it's nice. Its like behind in an internet cafe you must be quite high up in that chair. I have something like in the 2nd image Ive got that same desk chair but i always find i am leaning forward in it and never resting back against its back. So i guess that's why you have the high chair as its more back supporting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 No, actually, I went to a standing desk. So I designed the desk to be the right height while I’m standing and then I bought a chair that would work if I wanted to sit down. Works pretty well, and I stand about 80% of the time (that I'm at this computer). Just need to adjust the tilt on the monitors to adjust. And, yes, it is a home office.

Edward Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 Your office is nice and tidy but what is the benefit to standing as to sitting down? To burn extra calories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Yes, health reasons. It's not good for the human body to sit for long periods of time. And I just get tired of sitting for long stretches. Still, I doubt I work more than 4 hours a day at that desk currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 I really never thought of standing up doing work before, i did some research online and found this article. http://ergonomics.ab...anding-Desk.htm "If you sit for more than 23 hours a week you are 64% more likely to die from heart disease." Hmm this is quite worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That scared me into getting out of my chair and taking a walk (I just got back) Good job, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
