Most people tend to agree that too much sitting makes them
feel stiff, drains their energy, and decreases their productivity. Even further, research has found significant
health hazards that are associated with sitting for prolonged periods of
time. Studies suggest that uninterrupted
sitting can slow down a person’s metabolism and lower levels of good
cholesterol in the blood which can ultimately contribute to heart disease,
blood clots, poor circulation, diabetes, and obesity. An American Cancer Society study shows that
the more people sit, the shorter their average life span. Quite surprisingly, these harmful effects of
sitting for extended periods of time are the same for everyone, regardless of a
person’s athletic prowess and physical activity when he/she is not sitting down.
With all of this said, it seems safe to conclude that you
cannot possibly live a healthy lifestyle without simultaneously leading a
healthy work style. And a healthy work
style must include a daily work routine that does not involve hours of uninterrupted
sitting.
But how can I get my
work done every day if I’m not sitting for several hours at a time?? You
might ask.
Fortunately for you and everyone else across the world who
works at a desk, the market for adjustable workstations, which gives you the
option to sit or stand at your desk and to switch positions whenever you
choose, is on the rise. Your next
question might be something like…
But with so many
different companies out there manufacturing their own versions of a sit stand
workspace solution, how will I know which one to choose?!
Well, the answer to that question is actually quite simple. Ergotech
Group’s Freedom Line is now
introducing the all new Sit Stand
which provides the largest workspace surface in the market today!!! With up to 900 square inches of work surface
in the standing position and continued use of your complete desk in the sitting
position, how can you go wrong?!
Ergotech’s Sit Stand is an easy to use and
assemble workspace solution that enables you to raise your work surface up to
20 inches off your desk! This is the
highest range of vertical travel of any system in today’s market!! Unlike other designs, Ergotech’s state of the art modular monitor mounting system is a
tool-less design that can hold up to four 30-inch monitors and rear-mounts to
your desk as-is. This allows for the use
of the entire workspace and prevents you from having to do away with your
current desk. You can convert between 1,
2, 3, or 4 monitors and move the system from one desk to another with ease. The rock solid stability of this system is designed
to support up to 150 pounds, the greatest total weight capacity of any

monitor up, down, fore, and aft independently to suit his/her preferences, and
it is ergonomically designed to meet the Health and Safety requirements in the
workplace.
Ergotech Group’s Sit Stand is the most innovative
workspace solution yet, as it gives you the freedom to choose whether you want
to sit or stand at your desk at any given moment. This effective solution to reduce unhealthy
prolonged sitting guarantees complete ergonomic comfort in the workplace. Ergotech’s
system is one of the few adjustable workstations in the market day that is
electronically actuated. It features a
one-touch electric height adjustment which, with the push of just one button,
enables you to effortlessly raise and lower both your workspace and your
monitor. This height adjustment button
runs on a quiet durable motor which travels at a speed of 1.3 inches per second
and ensures that the entire system will both raise and lower smoothly, stopping
at any desired height increment.
With the Ergotech
Freedom Line Sit Stand solution, you will never again feel trapped sitting
in that same slumped-over, stiff position at your desk all day. This Sit
Stand system will encourage healthy movement throughout your day and enable
you to switch positions so that you will effectively be able to sit or stand as
you like without having to pause your work for one second! By allowing you to change position with ease
at any point in the day, this system will increase energy levels and
metabolism, improve posture and employee engagement, and stimulate brain
activity. It will fight fatigue, enable workers to stay more alert and focus
better throughout the day, and ultimately increase productivity in the
workplace.

system that has been strategically designed by experts to keep you healthy, the
