OT/ standing desk for work?

[wannagetbig]

for all the office workers out there

has anyone converted their desk to a standing desk?

I am seriously considering converting my desk to standing level and want to get some thoughts

As my job involves long hours (i.e. at work from 8am-9/10pm) and my lower back gets sore from sitting down all day (although i do have a foam roller which i use at lunchtime to stretch out etc..)
Consequently, i feel it effects my lifting, as i have tight hamstrings, hip flexors etc..

It is not only the physical benefits, as recently, when i have to review a document, i will stand up, and i feel i have better concentration.

any thoughts would be appreciated

Standing sucks too...

I'd try different chairs and stand up/stretch every few minutes.

Maybe this:

I've got a great stand up desk at my work, and my workstation was fully ergonomically assessed. Very happy with it. Would never go back to sitting on ass 8+ hours a day.
