The article discusses the author's struggle with chronic discomfort from years of remote work and attempts to alleviate it through expensive ergonomic solutions. Despite investing in high-end chairs and standing desks, the author remained uncomfortable. Ultimately, after switching to a manual treadmill desk, the author found significant relief and believes this could be a long-term solution for decades of work ahead, emphasizing the importance of movement in combating the negative effects of sedentary behavior.
After a month of use, I can see myself walking at this desk for the next 30 years.
I kept going back to physiotherapy. ... the advice was always: 'You need to move more. You should walk more.'
I've spent the last decade working remotely. And I've done what most high-income professionals tend to do when confronted with a recurring problem: throw money at it.
Even with the best gear, my body was quietly telling me: this isn't sustainable.
