The Best Standing Desks for Programmers

Do you spend most of your work day sitting down? If you’re like the vast majority of programmers, of course you do.

Research has shown that even for people who exercise every day, sitting for ~8 hours has negative side effects that aren’t offset. Even if you’ve taken the initiative to stay active, stay fit, and avoid the pitfalls of a sedentary lifestyle, by spending your work day in a chair you’re hurting your health.
