It is very important to adopt a correct sitting position at your desk. Especially if you sit at your desk for many hours, an incorrect sitting position can lead to physical complaints. But how do you ensure a good sitting position at your desk? Here you can read what you need to do to adopt a good sitting position.
To maintain a good posture behind your desk, it is important that the desk is the correct height. To determine the correct height, you must first adjust your office chair properly. It is essential that you sit properly against the backrest. Make sure the angle at the back of your knees is 90 degrees. The height of the desk should be equal to the armrest of your office chair.
It is not only incorrect sitting posture that can be problematic. Sitting for too long is also bad for the body, regardless of your sitting position. For that reason, more and more people are choosing a standing desk. For correct posture, stand upright with relaxed shoulders. While standing like this, your forearms should be able to rest horizontally on the desktop. A standing desk, for example, must therefore be able to reach a height of approximately 130cm for people taller than 1.92m. The height at which you actually need to adjust the desk depends on your body size.
For good posture at your desk, it is also important that your monitor is the correct height relative to your eyes. The top edge of the monitor should be level with your eye level. If your monitor is too high or too low, you may experience neck complaints. For a good sitting posture, your chair, desk and monitor must be properly adjusted.
