Is floor sitting the new standing desk? 🧘‍♂️

Working from home, we’ve all had that moment where we realize we’ve been hunched over a laptop for four hours straight.

To help break up long stretches of sitting, we tested the marinamantra Flow Floor-to-Standing Desk, which lets you:
• Kneel on the floor
• Squat for a while
• Sit on the floor
• Sit in a chair
• Stand
…and repeat.

📣 Calling all floor people
But are there benefits to sitting on the floor instead of a chair?

The short answer: It can be both good or bad, depending on how often and how well you do it. In itself, sitting on the floor is just as detrimental as sitting in a chair when it’s done for too long, or with incorrect posture. But if you adjust your position often, that’s when things change.
