If You Must Sit, Sit Well
Updated: May 29, 2019
Considering the amount of seated desks versus standing desks or adjustable work surfaces we sell, it is likely the majority of us are sitting most of the day.

It's 2019–you're probably familiar with the health risks involved with a sedentary life and work style by now, so we won't re-hash out all of those references when you could simply do an internet search.
Besides forming good habits of giving yourself 10 minutes or so of physical movement every hour at work, it's a great idea to reduce your amount of sitting if your job is at a desk all day everyday.
Sitting down isn't all bad and it's necessary for many jobs, but when it lasts for 8 hours with little movement in that timeframe try a few techniques to help get you moving.

All that being said, what do you do when you are virtually left without sitting alternatives? Perhaps your office doesn't have a desk option that accommodates a standing format. What then?
At that point it comes down to the chair you're sitting in.
Take a look at your desk chair's seat really quick.
Does it seem to have a definitive squareness to the front where the inside of your knees rest? Or, do those top end edges taper/slope downward, forming more of a smooth curvature?
That smooth curve on the front of a chair–called a Waterfall Edge (imagine a waterfall effortlessly flowing over the edge of that seat)–isn't necessarily just an aesthetic design choice by the manufacturer but a significant health benefit to heavy-sitters.

If it's not a smooth curvature, then you definitely want to consider a Waterfall Edge seat for the following reasons:
1. Blood circulates more freely through your legs
2. Overall pressure on upper legs is lessened
3. Better knee support
This Waterfall Edge design promotes better sitting health as well as better distribution of the sitter's weight. When you look for one make sure to find one with personalized contouring for both legs like this one, as well as one which will benefit the lumbar which is crucial to assist with correct posture.
Does your current chair promote better circulation such as ours with the Waterfall Edge design?
Find one from us to avoid others' standard $45 installation fees and wait time, as well as benefit from great pricing on wellness and other ergonomically sound seating which shouldn't deplete your entire sinking fund.
If we are doing anything for 8 hours a day, shouldn't we try to do it the best we can?
