Improve your health and productivity by rotating positions

Did you know that 70% of the population spends an average of 7 to 8 hours a day sitting down? The human body is designed for movement.

Correct posture is essential to avoid pain and maintain comfort throughout the day. Here are a few practical tips on how to get the most out of your sit-stand desk

1

Screen adjustment:

The height of the screen should be at eye level, and slightly tilted. The distance from the screen must be equal to the length of the outstretched arm.

2

Arm positioning:

When resting the hand on the table, the elbow should make a right angle. Your shoulders should be relaxed and your forearms parallel to the ground. There's little strain on the wrists

3

Positioning of the feet:

Feet should be firmly planted on the ground, spread so as to form a triangle between the legs and pelvis.

be effectively alternated?

For every 60 minutes of work:
