As for standing up while working, that's simply not possible, not to say that it probably comes with its own set of problems.
interested to know why "standing up while working, that's simply not possible"

Years back I stood on my feet all day as a line cook, stock boy, and when I was a Radio DJ I ALWAYS stood and did my shows that way.

I like the whole 45 min work / 15 min break, and as for the walking, I try to do at LEAST 2 miles a day, sometimes I pull 4 or 5 miles, but that's exactly what was being talked about, people are doing similar to that and it does more harm to the body then good... so they say lol.

Before the new baby was born I used to break every few hours and shoot a few games of pool in the gameroom, now the gameroom has the day crib, swing, and bouncer and sadly 'Big Red' (my Scarface themed pool table lol) has been stored in the garage till I convert that into the 'man cave / new studio office

As for breaking every hour, sometimes that just don't work for me, especially when I'm working with affils lol... I can just see it now......

Loki: Um, I'm sorry buy my alarm gadget just went off, I'll be back in 15 mins, I have to get up and walk around

Affil: .........

I dunno, I've just noticed I'm NOT in the health I should be at, and I'm not getting any younger here, and I know I'm a lifer in this biz, so I need to switch up the way I'm working each day.
