Standing stool in the office - everything you need to know

Stehhocker im Büro - Alles, was du wissen musst

Many people in Germany suffer from back pain as a result of sitting for too long - almost 60 percent of employed persons state that they have had to deal with back problems at least once in the last 12 months. With an ergonomic sitting and standing stool, you can make everyday work healthier - so you also benefit in your free time. In this article, we take a look at what it does and what benefits it brings to your everyday life.

Tip: Would you like to learn more about how to make your everyday work healthier and more ergonomic? Then take a look at the desqup blogs . Here we dedicate an article to the question of why plants should not be missing in any office.

The risks of sitting for too long

Before we look specifically at the advantages of a standing stool in the office, we would like to draw your attention once again to the risks of sitting for too long. It is not uncommon for employees in Germany to sit at their desks for eight hours or more a day. This results in major health risks, which can also become chronic.

Experts recommend taking a break from exercise after just 30 minutes of sitting. Because even after this short time, concentration and performance levels decrease enormously. Later in this article, we will take a closer look at exactly what this break in movement can look like – it definitely doesn’t have to be a full walk.

It is also generally recommended not to work sitting for more than four hours a day at all. In some professions, however, this may not be possible or can only be implemented with difficulty. Nevertheless, here are a few tips on how to protect your back . Here, too, the ergonomic standing stool is used in the office, but more on that later.

Otherwise, sitting for too long will result in the following consequences and risks:

  • muscle tension and pain
  • Postural damage caused by an incorrect seat height
  • cardiovascular diseases
  • Obesity and diabetes due to lack of exercise

In order to minimize these risks, the ergonomic sitting and standing stool in the office can be the right solution - we take a look at what it can do.

This is what makes the ergonomic standing stool for the office special                                           

In a classic office chair, you can lean back and rest your arms on the built-in backrests - that's comfortable and you can adjust the chair at any time. However, you also tend to get a little too comfortable here and lean too far back - this puts a lot of strain on your spine and neck . In the course of the day, without noticing it, you quickly move backwards and almost lie as if in an armchair - a posture that is of course not particularly good for your back .

An ergonomic sitting and standing stool is a better alternative here. It does without back and armrests, and you won't find castors on this seat either. Here are a few features that characterize a high-quality sitting and standing stool for the office:

  • Breathable material on the seat
  • High-quality materials in the basic construction
  • Non-slip foot of the chair
  • Sufficient suspension in the seat
  • Free mobility of the stem

All these points are given with the desqup Motion , an ergonomic sitting and standing stool for the office, which was developed in Germany. You are welcome to visit our detailed product page if you would like to find out more. Here you will also find descriptive graphics and application examples !

That's why an ergonomic standing stool in the office is good for your health

The biggest problem with a classic desk chair with a reclined backrest is the slouched posture that is assumed throughout the day. The longer you sit in front of the screen , the more you lean back. This is extremely bad for your spine and also your neck .

The ergonomic sitting and standing stool does not have a backrest. So here you have to keep your back straight with your own strength, you can no longer lean back. This ensures better blood circulation in your whole body, because here you are in a natural position. This also benefits your concentration and your performance at work.

Thanks to the stepless, quick height adjustment of the desqup Motion, you can set the right working height within a few seconds, regardless of whether you work sitting down or standing up. By the way, in the next paragraph we will see why the stool is also such a good solution when standing.

An ergonomic sitting and standing stool also ensures that you never sit completely still thanks to the movable handle. The seat of the desqup Motion can be moved 360 degrees so that your body has to compensate for these movements. This permanently causes so-called "micro-movements", which stimulate your circulation and also promote blood circulation.

You can't just put your arms down next to you with such an ergonomic sitting and standing stool in the office - you have to adjust the table so that there is a 90-degree angle in your arms. In this way, you automatically ensure that your table is set at the ideal height . A win-win situation for your health !

This is what the ergonomic standing stool does when working while standing

Of course, when you're standing, your weight usually rests entirely on your legs . This can also lead to problems when working continuously while standing, especially if you accidentally shift your weight to one side .

Tip: The ideal division of your working day looks like this: 60 percent sitting, 40 percent standing and 10 percent active movement.

When standing, the ergonomic sitting and standing stool in the office takes almost 60 percent of your body weight off - it combines the advantages of standing and sitting and makes it possible for you to work standing for longer without difficulties . It is the ideal solution if you prefer to always do your job standing up.

Here you can find out what makes the desqup Wobble and the desqup Motion so special!

Conclusion: Ergonomic standing stool in the office

The ergonomic sitting and standing stool is the ideal solution for all people who want to stay healthy even on long working days. It helps you get back pain less often and also relieves your neck and spine. An ergonomic standing stool in the office is only associated with a small investment and is often paid for by the employer - just ask!
