Did you know that restlessness from sitting too much is more disruptive than social media?
Standing on the job promotes a greater mental awareness, which leads to far greater productivity and improved concentration. Low-level movement can also reduce pain and discomfort, allowing people to better focus.
Research also suggests that metabolic advances can lead to increased focus and attentiveness, improved energy levels while reducing fatigue and enhance mood state—all key factors in improved performance and productivity
Standing delivers more oxygen and nutrients to the brain through improved blood flow, and those who maintain regular bouts of activity, reduce risk of cognitive decline by 50%. When using a standing desk, productivity increases by up to 46%!
