The Stand-up Desk Part 2

Adam Campbell, super-guy at Men's Health Magazine, has taken my advice an shifted to using a stand-up desk (SUD). I must say that it sure is pretty.

You can check it out here: http://thefitnessinsider.menshealth.com/

Perhaps Adam's co-workers are on to something and these SUD's should come with an optional urinal attachment to raise productivity even further, eh? (don't forget the small rack with anti-bacterial wipes!)

Of course, the female workers may get a tad jealous because most likely there'd only be a "mens" version.

The female version would cost WAY to much to produce with all the fuzzy seat covers, potpourri and candle holders, matching decorative privacy curtains, towels you don't actually get to use and such.

Bill - do you have any info on the height recommendations for a SUD? I'd think you'd want your arms at 90-degrees and the center of the monitor at eye level. Adam's set-up looks low, especially the monitor.

Thanks.

In a perfect world, 90 degrees at the elbow and top of the monitor at eye level. Putting the center of the monitor at eye level can promote extension at the occiput/C1.

That's what I thought, but was just testing you. ;-)
