Getting my standing desk back in place after 7 months in a seat is a good. What a relief. When I started the standing desk, I was using cases to elevate the monitors and it really worked. Tekmar got really busy at the end of the April, fighting cybercrime and covering a help desk for one of our clients. I took the standing desk down because the cabinets were needed elsewhere and I wasn’t in the office as much. The benefits of getting back to the standing desk can’t be disputed.

Many of still want a more of a full sized desk. Especially for dual monitors, which are recommended. There is almost no expense in setting up a temporary standing desk. As I’ve done as pictured below. I just took a couple old trade in machines waiting for recycling. I’m using a box toner for the correct keyboard placement.
The health benefits are the best thing about desks as noted in the authority nutrition’s site, 7 Science- Based Benefits article. “Sitting too much is seriously bad for your health. People who sit a lot have an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease and early death.

While I don’t think that a standing desk is the end all and be all solution, nothing really is, a standing desk is a good change for me. It is definitely in the spectrum that business people should consider. After running Tekmar for twenty years plus years from my chair it was a relief to do some standing work. It works to get me on my feet when I am in the office. It helps my back feel better. Make the time behind the desk and on the phone flow faster.
