Standing: Day 36?
30Aug2004 Filed under: Happiness & HealthRemember how I switched to a standing desk at work? Well, I’m still standing. I have a high chair that I use sometimes in the afternoons when my legs get tired, but for the most part I stand. I do notice that I favor one leg over the other (I tend to put more weight on my left leg in general, and the same is true when standing at my desk), but I like the feeling of being actively holding myself up when I’m working on the computer. GO STANDING DESK!

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.

oh my - I do get the active benefits - but I waitressed and tended bar for so many years that my legs and feet just a-c-h-e reading your post
But maybe its all the yoga and stuff I’ve done - I love sitting at my desk and typing away 
but then again I’ve never done it as a full time job . . . I do so love the way you so uniquely apporach things, ms. ariel

I hear that Rumsfeld uses a standing desk too.

Mr. Walters, I guess you missed the discussion about Rummy last time. Yes: he does use a standing desk.

Are you still using this arrangement? I’m looking for a standing desk setup, preferrably my entire workstation/desk area.
