The shift from traditional desks to standing desks isn’t just a workplace trend; it’s a lifestyle change that’s transforming how people work, move, and feel throughout the day. In this edition of Standing Desk Diaries, we highlight real stories from professionals who have embraced the standing desk and the positive changes they’ve experienced.
Why Standing Desks?
Sitting for long hours has been linked to back pain, fatigue, and lower productivity. Standing desks promote movement, improve posture, and increase energy. But don’t just take our word for it, here’s what real users have to say.
Diary Entries from the Workplace
✨ Amy, HR Executive
"Before my standing desk, I would slump in my chair for 8 hours straight. By mid-afternoon, I felt drained. Now, alternating between sitting and standing keeps me alert, and I actually end my day with more energy than I started with."
✨ Carl, Project Engineer
"With my adjustable desk, I switch positions often, and my posture has improved. I’m more focused and less distracted by discomfort."
✨ Elijah, Project Manager
"I added a standing desk, it’s been fun and keeps me active during calls. I’ve noticed fewer headaches, and my team even says I look more energised on video calls."
