Thank you! As a computer programmer, I have to sit for many hours a day. I would try to sit up straight, but my back muscles felt very stressed after some time.

this clip is WRONG, I induced lower back pain from sitting at an angle for too long! Now I sit straight (90 degree) with a proper back support, monitor at my eye level. Because if you sit at an angle, you are shifting your pelvis bone which eventually will pitch your lower back muscle and give you back pain (extreme numbness or pitching pain). Also by eye level with the monitor also takes away the straining you give to your neck and shoulders, no need to bend down to look. Trust me, I am a new person now since I have using this technique for over a year, no more pain, no more massage therapist, no more physiotherapist!

3 years later, I discovered some things. It's best to either sit with a neutral hip or slightly posterior (relaxed like shown in this video) hip. Never with your hips tilted forward so your butt is back.

Thanks a lot for clarify this posture, years ago a pain specialist told me that the backrest from the chair, was for that: "to rest your back on it" looking at the web always appears the 90 degrees position and that's for killing anyone's back.

You know what else is really bad, staying in the same position for a long time, no matter how good the posture.

agreed but if you HAVE to stay in the same position it better be something like this levus.co

A $30 monitor mount can do more for your posture than a $600 chair. The stands monitors come with take up space on the desk, so there's a limit to how close and high you can get the screen. If you get a monitor arm that clamps onto the back of the desk, you can get your monitor hanging right over your keyboard, keeping your from getting tempted to lean in.

The best way to sit is to stand up. I studied a lot and this is what I am doing now to maintain my health (I feel great now and I have a chronic disease) : I hacked my office, I got a trampoline, a home bicycle, some elastic bands and accessories.. a stand up desk (from time to time). and I use them every 30 minutes or so. When I sit I'm using a lumbar pillow (kebado - you can find it on amazon) but most of the pillows will do the trick. Many people think that going to gym is enough... but studies showed that we need stay active all day long.

What is your advise on the saddle chairs? PLEASE, thank you for your help.

So what about the tilt mechanism on the seat of the chair? Shouldn't my upper legs be level & not inclined upward to promote circulation? If I tilt my chair back at the base my knees are then higher than my hips. Although this feels more comfortable on my back isn't it worse for circulation?

You helped, a lot

I always pull my legs up into the chair and my torso leans to one side and my back hunches over because there’s really not enough space in my chair and under my desk to comfortably do that. I wish I could get one of those chairs that give you room to sit cross-legged. It’s super unnatural for me to keep my feet on the ground when sitting down, unless my butt is on the ground as well.

So I've been sitting correctly all along! Nice, trust your gusts better than what people tell you to do.

Does this leaned back posture not cause stress on the neck? It seems like sitting like this would create the head forward position that laptop usage causes, which results in poor posture.

Modern society we tend to fit the height and tilt of the chair to the desk and apparatus rather than the other way around i.e. sitting comfortably in a chair according to individual biomechanics and then adjusting the desk height to horizontally level palms and forearms. Laptops resting on the desk are terrible to work with for long hours. Ideally you want to raise it to the height of a traditional monitor using a stand or mini desktop and then connect a separate keyboard and mouse placed closer to you.

@jhasselberger

You have to adjust the computer, mouse etc so that you are most comfortable and not craning forward. I think he said that in the video.

I realy liked the background music

I think the cars have that design because you have to push the pedals, even that make my back hurts when I drive a long distance. For me sit straight is the most comfortable but I keep the feets under the chair to keep the natural balance, if I lean back my shoulders start to hurt, I need to be straight to let them fall naturally. Lean back is just for rest, not for work in my case.

I gather you read text from those files/binders and then type this text into your computer? Then maybe instead of placing them between you and the keyboard, place them between the keyboard and the monitor instead. Or, if the text is too small to read from that distance, maybe you could prop the file up to the left or right of the keyboard. That way you just turn your head but don´t need to look up and down all the time.

If possible remove the armchair if not I recommend buying another chair or trying to make the desk lower or higher. You shoudnt be using your armchair all the time honestly the arm should be floating, only use the arm chair when you truly need to relax. When you use you arm chair you unconciously put your weight in your back and shoulder which is a no good. As said in the video you really should just sit back a bit and let the chair do the work for your and let your body relax. I am glad that watching this video I realized I made everything right!

This would lead to piriformis pain if lying back for long time.

sorry , but I don't think that "to sit the way that you usually sit when driving a car" is a good analogy.... maybe some car sits are ergonomically made to sit correctly... unfortunately, not the ones I can afford...( or even test drive)....

Ok but now your head is tilting downwards and your shoulders are slouching. For hours at a time, you don't want your elbows out in front of you, you want them lower and with your hands nearly on your lap. That is the most natural position for your body. Your screen should also be positioned rather high and go good distance away so that you lift your chin. Your legs are a different story, but the biggest issue you will see is a weak core and pelvic tilt from sitting at your desk without the core being activated ever.

I prevent sitting now. I like standing up and do my work. I also have piriformis pain

Very helpful because 90 degrees ain’t it

He failed to mention the most important thing that validates his theory. That is, you can't achieve what he is asking/advocating, without a keyboard tray. How foolish, to make this video, and not show how you can use a keyboard while working in the desired "open angle" at the hips (greater than 90 degrees). It requires a close and low keyboard position....and he doesn't provide that perspective....foolish to not point that out. No, I DON"T sell keyboard trays....
