Be honest, how much do you weigh?

I didn't weigh myself in a while, but last time I was 415 lbs, why would that matter?

It puts a lot of stress on your spinal chord, muscles, bones and joints.

Get a good chair ($300+), office chairs aren't necessarily comfy sofas, they keep you upright and support you in the right places.

I get up. It's not that hard to just fucking stand up unless you're a fat neckbeard that needs to piss into bottles instead of going to the bathroom.

Sitting in the right position + walk every hour abit.
Plus set your computer screens so you don't have to look down to see everything.
Screens on eye height works the best if you sit in the correct position.

>How do you protect yourself from back pain while using a computer?
I don't, honestly. I have terrible posture. I know I should fix my posture, but I don't. I'm still young (23) so it doesn't affect me much.
When I do get back pain, I go do sports like minor lifting (even 5kg dumbbells are enough to defeat back pain) or swimming and running.
>>
You can sit between the backseat and my dick :^)
>>
>>55836190
It'll catch up with you.
30/scoliosis here. Can't even fucking deadlift. Literally did a few sets of 35lbs total and felt shearing back pain for a week after. Probably bad form but still, wew.

Change your lifestyle up a bit or at least how you sit. Practive proper posture for 1, 3, or 5 minutes before and after computing. Tell yourself you'll do like 20 seconds or some dumb shit and then just keep going. gl
