Despite this, a large proportion (about 80%) still sit down to work. The likely reason for this is that people are unaccustomed to standing, and that their legs, back, and feet start to ache when they stand up. In addition, there is a lack of awareness about the benefits of standing and the risks of sitting too much. When you stand and work for extended periods, it\u2019s a good idea to relieve pressure on your body by using a work mat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stand up and work. Live longer and feel better.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By standing up and working instead of sitting, you will experience many positive health benefits. Research shows that standing for three hours per workday for a month is equivalent to running a full marathon in terms of calories burned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variety is the spice of life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The benefits of varying your posture and standing up to work for parts of the day are many. Blood circulation increases, you become more alert and productive, and you also get better posture. Some tips to get started with standing are to start the day standing, raise your desk as the last thing you do when you leave for the day. Standing up after lunch is also good; then you can avoid the fatigue that can set in after a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease decreases if you stand up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will benefit more from your training if you also stand up and work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You become more alert and can concentrate better.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The risk of discomfort from strain injuries in the back and neck decreases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased calorie consumption \u2013 standing for three hours per workday for a month equates to a full marathon in calories burned compared to sitting down.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A soft rug makes it easier to stand for longer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En st\u00e5matta avlastar n\u00e4r du st\u00e5r upp De flesta har h\u00f6j- och s\u00e4nkbara bord p\u00e5 sin kontorsarbetsplats.
