First day of actually using the Standing Table
Mid-day
- I’m enjoying the seamlessness of walking around and getting to my workstation. There is no ‘transition’ between sitting and walking around. Just walk up to the table and park myself there.
- After about 5 hours on my feet, I’ve finally had to take a rest from standing because the mild fatigue is distracting me from my work. This soreness in my soles, my calves, my thighs and lower back should be temporary as my stabilizing muscles start adapting to their new workload.
- It’s nice to be able to move to music, and fold your arms at your work.
- I’m beginning to find a comfortable ‘leaning’ position with my left arm extended diagonally outwards and pushing down on the table as I maneuver the mouse with my free hand.
Evening
- I might have clocked in about 7 hours on my feet today.
- Fatigue registering in lower-back, rear-end, thighs, calves, and most prominently, my soles.
- I probably need to get some form of footwear, or a thick squishy rubber mat to even out the pressure on my feet.
- A bar stool would provide a good alternative to switch between too.
- No trouble with feeling sleepy in the afternoon.
