I just moved into a new place and have gone back to sitting as the stand-up desk I was using belonged to the landlord.

I am not comfortable! I hate it! I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy myself a stand-up desk.

I would break my work into about 2-3 hour shifts, and always take a bit of time away.

I have 3 monitors for two computers.

I was standing on a balance board for about 70% of the time in front of my desk. The balance board lets you shift your weight around easily, and somewhat keeps you on your toes, but it isn't like being on the balance board in the gym. Just having a hand on the mouse or keyboard pretty much takes all the balance challenge out of it.
