  Hi guys! I've been thinking about upgrading my workspace lately and came across ProgressiveDesk, a company that offers height-adjustable desks. I've been dreaming about this for a while now, but I can't decide how convenient and useful it really is. Have any of you tried these desks or even use them in your work? I've heard that they help with back pain, but I doubt that it really works. Please share your experience, is this interesting to you or is it more of a marketing ploy?

  I have been using a ProgressiveDesk for six months now, and it has been a great investment. Before I bought this adjustable desk, I had constant back pain, especially in the lower back. I worked in an office where I sat at a desk for 8-10 hours without the ability to stand up. At some point, I realized that I couldn’t do without changes. I started looking at height-adjustable desks, and I settled on the ProgressiveDesk. And I can say that it’s really worth it. First of all, the most important thing is posture. When you sit in one position for a long time, the body begins to compensate for the tension and stretch in unnatural positions, which, of course, leads to pain. That’s exactly what happened to me. At some point, I realized that just sitting at a desk was no longer an option. With height adjustment, I was able to alternate between standing and sitting sessions. At first, of course, it was a little unusual to work standing, but after a couple of days I felt a real difference. My back did not hurt, and my energy remained throughout the workday. The desk can be adjusted to your height and personal preferences, which is very convenient. At first, I didn’t believe that simply changing your position could have such a big impact on your well-being, but it really does work. Also, if you work at a computer, standing can help you avoid computer stare syndrome, when you stare at a monitor for hours without moving your head. When I stand, I try to keep my back straight, and this helps prevent chronic fatigue. I have actually become more productive because I am less distracted and feel much less tired at the end of the day.

  Interesting, I am also thinking about changing my desk, as long hours of sitting in front of a screen are taking their toll. I have not thought about height adjustable desks before, but after hearing about the benefits, I want to try them. My back pain is already starting to get in the way, so I think this is a worthwhile investment. I just need to decide how comfortable it will be to work standing up, as sometimes I have to do paperwork. But if it really helps, maybe I will try one too.
