As part of the Victor High Rise Collection, the DCX710W Height-Adjustable Standing Desk is a simple solution to a common workplace problem: too much sitting. Studies show that sitting for prolonged periods of time is detrimental to your health. The DCX710W transforms any sit down desk into a sit OR stand desk with an easy squeeze of the levers.
Your Desk Chair is Affecting Your Health
Many people don’t realize how much time they spend sitting throughout the day. We sit on our way to work, we sit at our desks, we sit on the commute home, we sit at meals, and many of our relaxing evening activities are spent seated, but what is all that sitting doing to our bodies?
Studies show that sedentary behavior (long periods of inactivity) are having a dramatically negative affect on our overall health. Many people experience back and neck pain from poor posture and lack of movement, but there are more severe risks associated with sedentary behavior. These risks include high blood pressure, poor circulation, increased risk of diabetes and more. There is a simple way to negate some of these factors: standing at work! Our office is where we spend 8+ hours of our day sitting.
With the DCX710W Height Adjustable Standing Desk, we can cut down on our daily sitting time, resulting in many health benefits.
So what are the benefits of standing?

People who sit more are at greater
risk for herniated lumbar disks, as
well as strained cervical vertebrae
in the neck leading to permanent imbalances.

Reduce Risk of a Heart Attack
Studies have shown that people who
sit for most of the day are 54% more likely to have a heart attack, no matter how much you exercise or
how well you eat.
