I never want to go back to not having a standing desk. Next purchase was a mat bc my feet did bark a bit after a full day standing but my hips and back feel so much better.
Standing desks are for people who have never worked a physical job. Did you know that you can just stand up from a normal desk at any time? Now imagine a job where you can't sit down.
Exercise your choice and stand up when you want to. Sit down when you want to. Don't do one thing all day long.
