STANDING

UP FOR

ERGONOMICS

Technology has enabled

us to do many things, but

it seems the more we’re

connected to the cloud,

the more sedentary we

get in the real world.

Should ergonomics

play a big part in the

technological revolution?

Does the simple act

of standing up at your

desk actually make any

diff erence to your health?

Our writer Wong Chung

Wee tests this theory and

lives to tell the tale.
