Sit at work; it’s better for you
At my job, I spend the entire time on my butt at the computer. Standing does burn more calories than sitting so I placed my computer screen and keyboard higher, and tried it out. After a week, my back, neck, and feet hurt, so went back to sitting in front of my computer at work, and good thing I did. It turns out that standing in front of the computer is worse “according to numerous studies…” and “…increases the progression of carotid artery disease…” (1).
