I sit for long hours, probably more than 12 hours 😅, i need to join gym 😆
I just broke my leg skating... I still find it hard to sit more than an hour at a time without the kids or someone needing me.
lol like 1 to 2 hours
My fitbit sort of helps remind me to stand up every hour but drinking tea helps too since I get up at least once an hour to make tea. On occasion though I get lost in a task and hours pass before I finally stand up. I am also quite fidgety so always somewhat in motion. And I try to take meetings standing up (and usually pacing around or stretching).
Unfortunately having plantar fasciatis means I cannot use a standing desk due to the pain.
I also make sure to take a short walk at lunchtime or move and stretch while waiting for the kettle to boil. And not stare at my screen during lunch but rather colour in or knit or something else.
For me, it's usually like 4 hours. I've got a standing desk so I in the morning stand for 2.5 hours then go for lunch and sit for 4 hours, and at the end one hour stand. Once bought an air-filled mini-mattress
just to be able to move more while standing, highly recommend trying it ;)
I like to walk (in place) while brainstorming. Since a significant chunk of the coding time goes to that, I try to spend more time standing. Same goes for meetings.
The only part of the day when I must sit is when I'm learning/researching something new. Sitting helps me go all in while learning things. Walking is for connecting the dots and lettings things really sink in.
2 to 3 hours then I get up and walk a little or take a nap. I plan on investing on a standing desk tho
For four hours every afternoon! Apple Watch always requests me to stand up, which is the only nice feature from Apple Watch 🍎
Less than 1 hour in between stand up sessions (or plain walking/running 😛)
1 hour stand, 1 hour sit (unless I have to do the podcast).
