What’s Wrong with Sitting All Day?

Studies have shown that a sedentary lifestyle can lead to a myriad of health risks and greatly decreases general quality of life. Desk-bound workers who are physically idle for the majority of the day can anticipate such complications in their health as decreased blood flow and poor circulation. Sitting all day slows the body’s metabolism and impedes the body’s ability to break down toxins and digest nutrients. The accumulation of these effects can lead to large-scale health problems including cardiovascular disease, obesity, and high blood pressure. Such health concerns can most certainly detract from quality of life, and additionally, quality of work.

What Can We Do Instead?

Creating a work space with opportunities for movement ensures that workers are getting up and moving around to stimulate blood flow and improve overall health.

• Ergonomic Standing Desks invite workers to engage their bodies while engaging their minds. Given the option to change positions from sitting to standing, workers can remain physically stimulated while still concentrating on their tasks. •

• Ergonomic desk chairs provide comfort and support better posture in workers. They ensure that your workers won’t be distracted by discomfort or physical pain. •

• Raised footrests complete the worker’s correct posture by reducing back pressure and inviting leg activity, which stimulates blood flow. •

• Monitor arms reduce neck and eye strain by positioning the screen at an angle that is most convenient for the worker, and are easily adjustable to ensure consistent comfort. •
