Does standing up while gaming help you play better?

Can standing help you achieve your gaming goals?

Switching between sitting and Standing can activate your blood flow. The benefits? This enables more efficient circulation of nutrients to your brain, giving your concentration levels a bit of a boost. It can also help to ward off fatigue, which is the last thing you want when you’re trying to improve upon a personal record, get to the next level or outplay your friends.  

This could also help boost your enthusiasm when playing. 

With the adjustable desk, you can enjoy the best of both worlds. You don’t have to replace sitting entirely. You may find standing works better for some games, whereas sitting might work better for others. 

As we’ve mentioned in previous blogs, one of the biggest advantages of a height-adjustable desk is that you can have a less sedentary lifestyle. Sitting for long periods is associated with a number of diseases and health conditions. If you sit behind a desk for your day job and then enjoy gaming in the evenings and on weekends, we say why not? Just remember to switch to standing some of the time to give your posture and health a bit of a boost.

On another note, you can also benefit from more vertical storage space with the standing setting. 

Remember to take regular breaks, too. With some electronic gaming desks, you can set reminders to alert you when it’s time to switch to standing or when to take a break.
