can definitely say that the standing desk has helped me a lot. I couldn’t get the full desk so I bought a topper that sits on the regular desk. I alternate positions every hour between sitting and standing.
The other thing I find useful is to stand up when I’m on the phone and use a headset so I can move around. While I’m talking to a colleague I can step over to the printer, set the kettle to boil for tea, or just slowly pace the hallway in front of the office.
A lot of great tips here Philipp!

A topper is a great start. I had one before the adjustable and found the height was not perfect, but it worked for a while.
Walking around is such an easy way of getting in more movement throughout the day.
What’s funny is when people in the office complain, “the printer used to be in our office, now we have to walk there”.😄
