Diary of the Standing Table - Day 0

I’ve just extended the legs of my table (they’re adjustable variety) so now my table is standing at 88cm. The top of my monitors are at around 65cm from the base of the table, so they’re standing at approximately 153cm.

First things I’m realizing right away:

  • It’s hard to engage in ‘leisurely’ activities. Perhaps this is because the posture is a very ‘active’ one, as opposed to the sedentary posture that I would usually assume when seated.
  • It’s late at night, and I have no desire to procrastinate from going to bed. Usually I’d want to check ‘just one more thing’ before going to bed.
  • I’m starting to feel some adjustments going on in my shoulders, my lower back, my calves and the balls of my feet.
  • Higher table means more space under the table for storage. Also, I don’t really need the space under the table to ‘store’ my feet as when seated.
  • I’m finding it difficult to read long articles while standing.
