TIL a standing desk is not just hype

Last week I finally set up the cheap standing desk frame I bought on sale for $120. I used to think it was just a trend, but after three days my back felt way better. I put it in the corner of my living room in Phoenix. Anyone else find a simple change to their setup made a big difference?

Honestly, I was the same way. I thought it was all just office worker nonsense until my wife made me try hers. Now my back doesn't feel like a rusty hinge by noon. I guess the joke's on me for being so stubborn about it. It's wild how just getting off your rear for a bit can fix so much.

Come on, it can't be that big of a deal. My back is fine and I sit all day. People just like buying new stuff.

Rusty hinge by noon" is such a perfect way to put it! I felt that in my soul. My old chair had me in knots by 10 AM, no joke. Switching things up made a world of difference.

Man I had the same problem with my old chair. I ended up putting a small foot rest under my desk and that helped a ton with the pressure on my lower back. She's right about @kai_ramirez38 though, a lot of people don't realize how much your setup matters until you actually try adjusting it. What kind of chair did you switch to?
