A new study from Australia involving over 83,000 participants found that prolonged standing may not improve heart health and could even increase the risk of certain circulatory problems.
Researchers discovered that standing for extended periods did not reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. In fact, spending too much time either sitting or standing was linked to a higher risk of problems such as varicose veins and feeling dizzy or lightheaded when you stand up.
hell yeah. My work provided me with a sit / stand desk, ergonomic office chair and monitor arms around the pandemic since we were all working from home.
Having that adjustability has helped my hamstrings a decent amount. I still need to do a better job of stretching throughout the day rather than just at night.
I will agree that I feel more… creative(?) when standing but I try not to overdo it.
