@carnage4life Cardio health is one important aspect of health. Spine health is another. Having bulged or slipped discs from extended year-on-year sprint-pressure sitting may not kill you but will likely disrupt or end your keyboard-focused career.
Standing desks can help with that. But the better approach is regular short get-up-and-move breaks every 20-30min. And that's anathema to most tech firms.
