MAKING THE TRANSITION Getting Started Table height, monitor level, monitor distance from eyes, wrist and arm positioning, and posture all have to be right to prevent physical discomfort and injury Determine your optimal standing height When typing your wrists should be slightly below your elbows (but no more than 2cm / 1 inch below) Adjust your monitor screen to eye level keeping your chin at a 90 angle Wear comfortable footwear if possible You should stand with your legs shoulder width apart, and your head, neck, torso and legs should all be in line Your body should not have to strain or lean in order to work at a standing desk Make every effort to move, fidget or mini-stretch while you are standing You will burn and extra 50 calories per hour standing, than sitting How Much Should I Stand? Avoid prolonged standing and make sure you mix it up as much as possible Too much standing may lead to problems (e.g. varicose veins, fatigue or muscle ache) Experts recommend starting with 2 and gradually accumulating 4 hours of standing each day at work An anti-fatigue mat will alleviate fatigue and muscle ache Do I Need a Keyboard Tray? Maybe, but probably not Select a height adjustment range that will accommodate comfortable sitting & standing work heights (see Page 8), then you shouldn t need a keyboard tray However, if you are a shorter person, an adjustable keyboard tray that can adjust lower than the desk height may be appropriate When is best to Stand? It is best to alternate between sitting and standing as much as possible. Below we have provided some basic pointers First thing in the morning and after any meal is a great time to stand Standing up will help blood circulation and balances your blood sugar levels Routine tasks such as checking emails and reading documents are done faster when you stand Most people prefer sitting down to write notes or type documents You will also notice that you may be more confident conducting telephone call standing as you have better oxygen flow to the brain You may find that you don t like any particular routine and prefer to stand or sit to work depending on how you feel Don t feel pressured It is your body so you alone know best how to keep comfortable If you feel tired or fatigue when standing up, sit down and rest your legs After standing in the same position for a while, it will help to go for a quick stroll Changing postures or going for a walk allows your body to release muscle tension after you ve been in a static sitting or standing posture 14
