Truktruk said it took him about 2-3 weeks to get used to
Every 2-3 hours he takes a break from standing and sits down when using his computer
Here's a link from truktruk's stream (!whystand command) http://www.juststand.org/tabid/816/default.aspx

How does it affect gaming?
I personally don't have any experience with standing desks but I'm assuming gaming-wise it's basically the same thing once you're used to it.
Just make sure you take some sitbreaks every couple of hours or you might exhaust yourself (especially when you're still getting used to it)

Is it worth it?
Probably. There's health benefits (which you can read about in the link) and I don't know anyone who regretted buying a standing desk. But then again I only know like 3 people with a standing desk

TLR uses a standing desk

You learn new things every day

TLR:

Best pocket to ever play the game
Ripped as SHIT
Deadlifts the combined weight of an entire 6s team

give me ONE reason not to use a standing desk

u have to stand

I can't stand and not walk around I would never be able to do this. I've never stood still ever I don't think

genuine question do you people have something that makes standing for 2-3 hours uncomfortable?

honestly a treadmill standing desk sounds like the future of health and ergonomics.

i have one at work it's bomb dot com. took some getting used to but after the first week my legs have never been stronger

make sure to get yourself a cushy mat to stand on tho, ur feet are gonna die initially especially if you have bad shoes

sounds like a joke but its the biggest bitch

feet?

If you're uncomfortable with standing after only 2-3 hours, you either have a terrible physical issue you need to get checked out or you've been blessed with having a job where you don't need to stand to work.

Has anyone here tried using a desk bicycle?

I probably wouldn't use it while gaming (incompatible with foot pedal push-to-talk) But it seems like a desk bicycle would be even more healthy than a standing desk since, unlike a standing desk, you can actually move your body and do computer things at the same time.

You don't want to be standing the whole time either. Ideally you would alternate between standing and sitting for equal periods of time, as standing for extended periods has its own set of issues.

Of course, if you do balance the sitting and standing well, it's infinitely better than a regular desk.
