Computer desk/usage

Whoever is trying to work while laying down on the stomach, please be careful, and be very moderate about it. I spent a few years trying to work exclusively that way, and ultimately ended up damaging ( and entrapping) the ulnar nerve on both arms. ( due to the weight transfer on to the elbows, inspite of using pillows ). Keep changing the postures if you need to work - do not put the weight on any specific body part like hip, elbows etc. Standing a lot may be better if that is possible, because legs were designed to do that anyway. The butt is meant to a core weight bearing part and since PNE robs us of that functionality, we need to be careful about throwing the body weight on body parts that were not meant to carry excessive load over long periods of time.

Try to google ergodesk web site. I consider it but did not go there yet. It looks impressive but expensive.
There is airdesk and easydesk web sites that look attractive I am new and I do not know much but this is what I consider

Here is some interesting link
http://www.ergoquest.com This place sells all over the world and located in Grand Rapids. 2 hours from me. My husband is sick but when he gets better I plan to go and look at it. A bit expensive.

I will let you know when I see it

I really like my airdesk. You can get a tall one for your bed or a shorter one for a couch. It's not very expensive and you can't fit a printer or pc on it but it's great for a laptop or ipad. You can use bungee cords to hold the ipad or laptop on.

srinmav, thank you for posting this. I am sorry that you now have issues with your arms. Changing postures often, taking breaks, is so important. I still love my "couch" office, but I am trying to vary my positions and time myself when I am on the computer so that I don't spend too long.

I am building a new adjustable height desk at home it uses a winch to change the height so i can stand and work easier.

This is my office at work, it helps but i still can only use it an hour at a time and then the arm can swing and i can stand and use my laptop.

Do you want to sell it?
