I Love Standing !
I have discovered a new thing in my fitness life. It has always been there, yet it never ever occurred to me, as I am an all or nothing (sit for hours and knit, or get up and go for a big hike)... but standing is in itself, I am finding, a core-strengthening exercise ! Yes, standing is also a gentle low-impact, low-stress, no-cost, no-time allotment... in fact, of which doesn't get in the way of much at all (except adjusting the height of laptop etc, to counter height with books, etc.. lol). I know there is a product called a standing desk, but I like to improvise.
In fact, standing more in the last couple of weeks, I know that my muscles have had to get use to this. Sitting is now for early morning and after dinner... but in the day, I am trying to stand more, and sit for 'time-out' breaks. I think it's going to really change things in the long run.
Any of you up for standing?
