That is one focus of this column: how does one maintain physical health while engaging in work that is not-at-all physically demanding?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Like most people trying to stay healthy, I make sure to get plenty of exercise. However, even working out for an hour a day, it turns out, does not negate all the time spent hunched in front of a computer in terms of health. According to a slew of recent studies, even if you\u2019re exercising when you\u2019re not sitting, the act of sitting itself is physically damaging. Even if you exercise regularly, if you sit for long periods, you\u2019re more likely to <a href=\"http:\/\/well.blogs.nytimes.com\/2012\/10\/17\/get-up-get-out-dont-sit\/\" target=\"_blank\">get diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and die prematurely<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Yikes! I know it\u2019s a noble sentiment to die for one\u2019s art, but reading those studies (okay, I admit, the popular journalism summary of those studies) was enough to make me re-examine how I spend my working hours.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of other \u201csitting\u201d professionals (think programmers, etc.) also got a little antsy after reading these studies. But, being the creative bunch they are, they discovered and implemented a clever solution for themselves. Then I copied it.<\/p>\n<p>Turns out there is a way to still get an efficient amount of writing done without sitting in a chair for solid hours, thereby possibly shortening my lifespan. Two words: standing workstation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/RTRfFI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/RTRfFI\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7477 aligncenter\" style=\"margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 6px;\" alt=\"Standing desk\" src=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Standing-desk.jpg\" width=\"177\" height=\"314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Standing-desk.jpg 295w, https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Standing-desk-169x300.jpg 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 177px) 100vw, 177px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>My standing desk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Above is the standing desk I set up to replace my traditional one. (Yes, I know it\u2019s messy.) I ordered the kit on Amazon, and it took me less than an hour to put together. Because I\u2019m shorter than average, I had to set the sliding keyboard section one notch lower than recommended in the directions, but it\u2019s at a decent height and I haven\u2019t had any problems with it. My biggest fear was that, because it\u2019s not a sliding, adjustable station, it would be too tall for me. Luckily the top section is perfect for my height if I keep the level of my monitor near the lowest height setting.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll notice that I also purchased a high stool to go along with the standing desk. So, yes, I do have the option to sit for short periods if I care to. This was also to prevent leg stiffness from standing for too long (though I also take frequent stretch breaks).<\/p>\n<p>The standing desk kit I got was pretty basic, but there are many varieties available; I just didn\u2019t want to pay the extra cash for a fully adjustable version, though those do offer more flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>For the more DIY inclined, you don\u2019t even need to purchase a new desk. You can modify your existing workstation to allow you to stand. This can be as simple as placing milk crates or shelves on your desk. One should be at the level of your keyboard; ideally your elbows should be parallel to the floor. The other should be at eye-level for your monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, for some people standing still isn\u2019t enough; they add <a href=\"http:\/\/chrisshattuck.com\/blog\/treadmill-desk-single-most-effective-productivity-hack-my-last-year\" target=\"_blank\">treadmills<\/a> to their desks! That is a step beyond where I\u2019m prepared to go, for the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Do you ever work while standing? If you have a standing desk, what sort of arrangement do you use?<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Author Faith Van Horne\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/RTRfFI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/RTRfFI\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-6848\" style=\"margin: 6px;\" title=\"Author Faith Van Horne\" alt=\"Author Faith Van Horne\" src=\"https:\/\/writersfunzone.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Faith_thumbnail.jpg\" width=\"162\" height=\"203\" \/><\/a>Faith Van Horne is the author of the young adult fantasy novel\u00a0<strong><a title=\"Slideways [Paperback] by Faith Van Horne (Author)\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/RTRfFI\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Slideways<\/em><\/a><\/strong>.
