Almost-Standing DesksIf standing for hours on end sounds like a pain in the ... well, in the feet, then consider a compromise. Some desks are designed to put more weight onto your feet — but not all of it. For example, the Focal Locus chair and desk setup puts you in a position that’s more standing than sitting, with a forward-leaning chair. You still get many of the benefits of a standing desk without having to stand all day. You can also opt for a real standing desk, but add a Wilkhahn chair called the Stitz. The chair provides support, but it’s deliberately unstable, forcing you to move and flex during your workday.
