Lawyers spend a lot of time at their desks and many of them have transitioned to desks they can sit, stand, or walk at to help keep their fitness level up, their brain active, and their law firms humming along.<\/p>\n

Sitting and being sedintary for long periods of time has been shown to reduce motabilosm, blood flow, and mood. By standing from time to time, walking from time to time, and taking a healthier look at our time at work we can all greatly improve how we feel and how our bodies work at work.<\/p>\n

Here are some great examples of standing desks used by lawyers all across the USA\u00a0and quotes on\u00a0what they love about their desks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

We have been using a standing desk for the last year and a half and loving it! it helps with back problems, tiredness and even makes us feel more active due to not been sitting all day long.\"<\/p>\n

DIY Standing Desk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"I built a standing desk a few years ago and absolutely love having the ability to stand up most of the time, and only sit when I need to. It's especially helpful when I'm working on a court filing or mailing that has to have documents printed, signed, edited, reprinted, etc. Rather than having to get up and down from a chair, it's so much easier to just walk around my office. I'm looking forward to upgrading my DIY model to a professional, motorized version within the next year or two.\"<\/p>\n

\"As lawyers and legal professionals, we live at our desks. \u00a0The problem, of course, is that being chained to your desk can be rough on the body -- and stifle creativity. \u00a0Before the treadmill desk, members of our team would take \"walking meetings,\" where we would walk and talk. \u00a0In doing this, we discovered something surprising: we were happier, we had clearer thoughts, and we tended to come up with our most creative ideas while walking. \u00a0We wished we could have that level of productivity and health all day... With the treadmill desk, now we can.\"<\/p>\n

\"We outfitted it with dual monitors, a phone headset and room for iPads and laptops. Contrary to our concerns, we've found that we are actually more productive on the treadmill desk\"<\/p>\n

\"I started using it because I have severe arthritis and back issues and working while standing as opposed to sitting has really helped. There is a lot of medical evidence that use of standing desks improves your health and actually helps to burn calories and reduces your risk of certain conditions such as hypertension. \u00a0I actually find that it also helps to improve concentration and the elevation above your desk gives you more surface area on the desk itself.\"<\/p>\n

\"The desk enhances my productivity by preventing distractions and helping me focus.

\"I\u00a0used a traditional desk for my\u00a0first 15 years of practice, and due to the sedentary nature of the practice of law, ended up gaining 40 pounds. In my\u00a0quest to regain optimal health, I\u00a0did some research into standup desks about ten years ago and found that Donald Rumsfeld, former US Secretary of State, used a standup desk, as did Thomas Jefferson before him.\"<\/p>\n

\"I lost the 40 pounds using a combination of tennis, smart food choices, and the use of the standup desk.\"<\/p>\n
