I’m going to start standing-sitting while working. Got a desk that can do it. Was curious how it has affected other people.

minus-square@lennybird@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 day agoCan you elaborate on the specific benefits you saw? Did you notice anything in terms of health metrics? Resting heart rate, HRV, blood pressure, watch sleep quality, etc.? I need some motivation to overhaul my desk setup lol.
