Yea so maybe that degree thing is a German problem. I do not know the other markets/countries. Here, what I said is certainly true.
A standing desk is better than no standing desk but won't correct everything by itself. Taking a break and walking around is fine but I still need to get back to staring into the computer screen to do my work.
I don't know your age but for me it started with about ~35 that I realized that this has negative effects on my body.
After 1 year of SWE, I realized my body was becoming frail and mushy relative to when I was slugging cast iron fittings in the warehouse. Took me about 2 weeks to put together a workout regime with built in progression.
One of the things I’m glad of is the flex time and working from home so I can crank out workouts whenever it suits me.
You also have the ability to get a standing desk and take breaks to walk around.
