I do an 8 to 10 hrs shift daily, I find changing position regularly more important than sitting in one perfect position also keeping a 250ml water bottle instead of 1 litre to make myself walk for 4 - 5 times at least for water.

Movement is important. Just try to stray too far from this in your variations, that's all.

[@obliviontb]

Elbows at 90 degrees at this setup gives you carpal tunnel syndrome. Have been gaming 8+ hours sometimes for 20 years and never had any pain. Went to an office job an sat in this stupid „correct” position just to get carpal tunnel syndrome. Do what your body feels comfortable with and change positions often. Movement is the only solution.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Fair comment actually. Every body is different. Sometimes doing what feels feels right for you is best. And definitely moving frequently is the key. Keep in mind though: bending elbows a lot more than 90 degrees can irritate the ulnar nerve. And bending them less than 90 degrees will mean they are forward of the body which increases tension in the upper trapezius muscles.

[@obliviontb]

@@BodyFixExercises Sorry for the mean tone of the comment earlier. How I avoid the tension on the trapezius muscle is by elevating my desk higher and put my elbows out to the sides on the desk. This allows for the radius and ulna not to pinch the nerve and brings the screens more to "just below eye level" (most office setups don't have tall enough monitor stands). This results in a wide elbow positioning to the sides of the body and when you need to type, you move your hands adding movement. This is not perfect when you are primarily writing.

[@Neonloverx]

​@@obliviontb you really don't know what u are talking about. Gaming and office work aren't the same. Whatever you did different besides the posture is probably what gave you carple tunnel

[@sometator]

Ahhhh yes, because the accumulated 20 years of gaming 8 hours a day did not have anything to do with this....

[@ThaoTheScorpion]

The key for the seating problem is change the position/posture all the time. Keeping a single seating posture, no matter how "correct" it is, doesnt cut it

[@BodyFixExercises]

Just try to to get too far away from this position.

[@jouisimo5701]

if u dont move ur fascia is gonna clump together 100%. especially lower back where u have big plates of it.

[@clublulu399]

I'd like to emphasize one super important note: You can consciously try to sit in the "best/correctest" post there is, but if your muscles lack sufficient strength, especially hip muscles like the glutes and hammies, then a person mind will be stuck in a loop of always thinking about good posture. Sitting in good posture should be effortless, no thought should be placed on sitting in the right posture. The hip muscles and hammies on both legs not only have sufficient strength to hold one upright, but there has to be an equal balance in strength between the leg and right leg. I've been dealing with a left hip issue for close to three years and not only were daily activies like walking difficult to perform, sitting was basically out of the question, yet alone in a good posture. I had major muscles imbalances between my left and right leg (severe weakness in leg compared to right), that when sitting I would notice myself eventually sitting on my dominant side (right). Once I got the strength deficit in my left leg eliminated, sitting became more natural. Takeaway: don't neglect your muscles, and always strive to keep the strength in muscles between the two legs in balance.

[@jerrysundin]

How on earth did you manage to achieve such an imbalance?

[@clublulu399]

@ sports related injuries that I’ve neglected to attend to and heal at the time they happened. I sustained a major ankle injury on my left leg, hamstring tear on my right, torn meniscus on my right knee. Brushed the injuries off without getting them properly looked at, and within a couple years time imbalances built up and became chronic.

[@BodyFixExercises]

***NOTE! A LOT of people will find it hard to maintain this "ideal" position. There are two ways to address this... (i)To begin, keep changing position slightly without straying too far from this position. Movement and variation can help. But ask yourself this: WHY is it so difficult to maintain?? Because with poor posture three things happen over time. Spinal joints seize up in poor positions. Some muscles (at the front mainly) shorten and adapt to poor posture. And other muscles become weak. (ii) You can maintain good sitting posture quite easily if you work on mobilising, stretching, and strenghtening these key areas. These are the kind of postural exercises you can do: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWq0e3yrfr10ppY kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJ65ZXyEa6p9h6M

[@SergeyBerengard]

Raise your screen so that the MIDDLE of it is at your eye level. The "top of screen at the brow level" rule was made back when screens were smaller. These days if you put it like that, you'll be looking down for 8 work hours and possibly bending your neck and back to focus. Bring the screen higher to your eyes.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Yes, if the size of your screen is very large you would need to adjust it slightly

[@DesperatePotato]

As a veteran chair user, the key is moving around you body, shifting yours weight and your joints. You can have you butt on the edge of the seat with your back straightened then shift to a curve unti the back of the chsir etc. Just make sure to moveeer

I come to this video every couple of week for posture motivation. Still best one out there. Sweet and short! Congratz.

[@BodyFixExercises]

A lot of people comment that this position of sitting is impossible to maintain, but honestly I can sit like that for hours. The key is just to do a lot of postural exercises. If you mobilise the restricted areas of your spine, strengthen the muscles that pull your head and shoulder back, and stretch the muscles that pull your head and shoulders forward, you should be able to maintain this position quite easily. But of course movement is always important... so you can do my 'office desk exercises' (video) regularly to create a bit of movement during the day.

I think I'll also take your advice to get up more during the day. Thank you for the video!

Now all that's left is to elevate these monitors. Cheers!

Hey this is great! I have gone through this numerous times...where I stop paying attention to my posture and then slouching becomes a habit. And before I know it, I wind up with weeks or sometimes months of neck/back/shoulder pain. This video has some novel solutions I haven't heard before - such as removing armrests if the chair won't fit under the desk, and placing a laptop on a stack of objects while using an external mouse and keyboard. Also setting a reminder to check posture every 15 minutes is a great idea. Thank you!!!

Japanese 1)後ろに曲がる椅子は避けてください。 腰痛の一番主な原因です。 椅子にできるだけ直角になるように座り、椅子が背中を十分に保護するようにしましょう。 2)膝が椅子に当たらないように座ってください。 もし膝が椅子に当接している場合は、あなたが大きすぎる椅子を利用しているということです。 3)もし椅子が机の下に入らない場合は、肘掛けを調整してください。 4)椅子を机と水平になるように高さを調整して、肘が机に90度直角に当たるようにします。 5)膝が90度垂直に立てられるようにし、足を伸ばしたり、組んで座らないでください。 6)足首が90度で地面に触れるように座ってください。足が地面に触れることができないほど椅子が高い場合 足プロテクターが別途必要です。 7)パソコンに向かって曲がった姿勢で前傾姿勢で座る場合 肩と首に負荷がかかることがあります。 したがって、肘が垂直になるようにキーボードとマウスを正しい姿勢で利用できるように 正しい姿勢で利用できるように配置してください。 8)マウスを利用するときは、90度直角に利用するようにし トンネル症候群及びその他の手首の疾患を防止できるようにしてください。 もし手の頬の周りに不快感を感じる場合、柔らかい手首保護メモリーフォームなどを利用してください。 このような製品を利用するときは、手首の下の肘ではなく、手首に届くようにしてください。 9)モニターと視線の距離は、あなたが腕を広げた時、指先が触れる程度でなければなりません。 近すぎると眼の病気を、遠すぎると首の病気を引き起こす可能性があります。 10)モニターの上部が視界の正面を向くようにしてください。 高すぎるとドライアイ、低すぎると首の病気を引き起こす可能性があります。 11)マルチモニター使用時、モニター間の間隔が適切でない場合、首の病気を引き起こす可能性があります。 したがって、マルチモニターを利用するときは、メインモニターを視界の正面に置くようにし、残りのモニターをメインモニターにできるだけ近づけるようにしてください。 12)2つのモニターを使用する場合、2つのモニターの間隔はできるだけ近づけるようにしてください。 そして、可能であれば椅子を回して確認するようにし、首をあまり使わないでください。 13)ノートパソコンを利用するときは、外部モニターを接続して視界に合うように使用したり あるいは、支えとなるようなものを使って視界に正面から見えるようにしてください。 このような時には、ワイヤレスキーボード/マウスなどの外部入力器を使用することをお勧めします。 14)携帯電話を利用するときは、マイク付きのヘッドホンを利用したり、マウスを利用する手の反対側の手を利用して受信することをお勧めします。 15)携帯電話に一定時間の通知を設定しておき、同じ姿勢で長時間パソコンを利用せず、15分程度の周期で定期的にストレッチをするようにしてください。 ゴミ箱を空にしたり、プリンターの出力を確認したり、あるいは散歩をするのも良いでしょう。

I need a new set up. My challenge is trying to sit in a correct position while being extremely restless due to ADHD. I have the constant urge to move my legs, I definately need to make changes of how I sit, my desk height and and my screen set up. I am loving your channel. Currently am experiencing upper back back that goes into my right shoulder. I have a feeling the cause is the base of my neck spinal region. I am implementing a routine to stretch muscles in my chest, strengthen muscles in my back and neck. Will do that exercise where you stand straight on the wall amd gently press your neck backwards. I was trying romboid exercises; but, I think it is referred pain from my neck. I am 6'3 and haven't had the best posture. Even though I train Wing Chun and Yang Tai Chi Chuan for 7.5 years; I still have these bad habits when I am not training. However, I have been dealing with Palindromic Rheumatism since January last year and has really impacted my ability to exercise at times. But, I am determined to fix my current back pain issues. It suddenly started to impact me within the past 3 weeks...

I got my back fixed by a chiropractor 2 years ago after a decade of pain. But for some reason, sitting at a desk is causing immense, crippling pain no matter what I do. I'll continue to try and find relief from it. Thank you!

Thank you for this video! You feel so ergonomic, can I know the height of your desk and the distance between chair and desk? I m 184 with shoes ..I can t feel comfortable in my workstation! Thank you in advance

Thanks for thiis video. I just learned i've never had a proper chair in my life. Wish i would have watched this before i just spent $300 on a new chair 4 days ago. I'm a short man - 5'7''. On top of that, i guess my legs are even proportionally short. I've never sat in an office chair in my life where my legs could be at 90 degrees with my feet flat without knee backs touching the seat rest. Guess i need an XXS office chair or something. I'll just stick with a stool from now on.

Just get a foot rest of the right height and you're good to go.

Great video, I have been wondering how to optimize chair/desk/monitor height for maximum comfort.

Can you do one for studying !? Cause my neck and upper back hurts

[@BodyFixExercises]

Wouldn't studying just be the same? 🤔 Let me know. I'm always interested in what people want to see

Wonderful video Thanks Brother From India .

I find it most comfortable while relaxing my body, but playing games or working on projects makes it hard to relax. The pain in neck and waist occurs when you stiffen your muscles.

[@BodyFixExercises]

Yes, it's hard to focus intently and relax!

[@alazalgunaid6722]

[@BodyFixExercises]

[@LaVidaEsBella2425]
