I had a standing desk for the last year, I started getting back problems for the first time in my life so I thought I would give one a go. I been so good about it, but in the end, I noticed no change that the standing desk gave me with regards to my back pain, so I chucked it and just work really hard on having good posture, and getting up often to avoid work at all costs.

Its great to be back in a desk chair, one of my favorite places.

If you’re having back problems the best thing to do would probably be to strengthen your core

I like to picture my muscle as the armor that surrounds and supports my bones. If your daily activities are putting too mush stress on your bones and joints, then you need to improve your RL armor class, which means strengthen the muscles around those bones

This was the way I was able to completely eliminate shin splits (turns out it’s not your shoes or your shoe inserts, it’s your leg muscles), and knee problems from hiking downhill. I did this by strengthening the muscles supporting the bones and with the knees also concentrating on using the quad and glute muscle to slowly hold the body’s weight each step so that none comes down on the knee. It made hiking downhill a lot slower and less fun, but also made my knee pain disappear. When you weigh 200lbs, you can’t just float downhill like some of these guys at 160lbs are doing…

So for you doing planks, sit ups, side sit ups, side planks, just look up core muscle strengthening exercises on YouTube, none should require any equipment, just your own body weight. Really good chance your back problems will vanish
