The increasing trend of Australian desk workers moving to a sit stand desk structure is not just a fad. The reason for the shift in how people work is due to the many health and posture benefits that comes with standing while you work.
As an office worker, you’ve likely experienced many issues with extended periods of sitting including weight gain, lower back pain and poor posture. Moving around more often throughout the day (including standing for portions of time at work) can help bring your energy back into check, get your body back on track and improve your posture fast.
Benefits of Electric Sit Stand Desks
Sitting for extended period of time can cause serious issues with your health.
Countless research has been done to look into the benefits of moving to a sit stand desk arrangement and the results are often positive. Many professional believe sit stand desks to be an invaluable piece of furniture to create an ergonomic office layout.
Moving to a stand up sit down desk layout can help:
- Reduces risk of weight gain and obesity
- May help lower bloody sugar levels
- Could lower your risk of heart disease
- Help reduce back pain
- Improve energy levels
Note: If you go from sitting for 6 to 8 hours a day to standing all day throughout the week, you could start to experience back pain, leg strains and foot pain. It’s recommended that you gradually work into your new stand up sit down desk setup, starting with 30 to 60 minutes a day.
Finding the Right Sit Stand Desk for Your Office
The Stand @ Work Study carried out by the Heart Foundation looked into the shift to sit-stand workstations for employees – focusing on the key health benefits and limitations. Overall, the results were positive in reducing sitting time, but did present some key limitations for workers including:
- Wobbly keyboard platforms
- Loss of desk workspace
- Limited maximum height adjustment, in the case of taller users
Arteil understand the frustration these issues can causes, especially when you’ll be working at your desk for 6-8 hours a day, 5 days a week. That’s why we’re proud to present the Elevate Sit Stand Desk Range.
Our experienced team have done all the research and countless tests to find a range of affordable sit stand desk options for Australian employees. The Elevate electric Sit Stand Desk range provides an ergonomic and comfortable sit stand desk arrangement – with increased stability, workspace and multiple height adjustment options.
