Another 285 Reasons to Stand

Lifehacker is on a roll this past week with ergonomic posts.

Today they posted a link to a website that estimates the additional calories you can burn simply by standing to work. Those of us at Ergo Headquarters all took a minute to enter our weight and estimated hours standing and were pleasantly surprised by the results.

Of course, there are plenty of other reasons to stand during your work day and bennefits to adjustable-height desks, but this is certainly a nice little bonus.
