Actually a good ergonomics video. Well done! Only complaint is that 100 year old keyboard design. Get something ergonomic to reduce movement and keep your hands in line with your forearms.
I can tell you what is wrong in this video. Desk is too high making his chair too high. The 8" gape between top of the desk and bottom of the top is too excessive. For the average person their arms will rest about 4" above their thighs. Giving your elbows and knees a perfect 90 degree angle.

@TuxKat he wouldn't be an expert, and in fact an idiot if he isnt flexible over the different amount of users that use a computer. Gamers primary tool is usually the mouse. Screen should be set between the middle of mouse pad and wasd keys. Keyboard set at an angle is naturally ergonomical
For fps gamers (especially csgo), put your keyboard in a more crooked position so it feels more comfortable for your hand over long amounts of time. You don't want to get bothered with your arm while playing competitive.
Home office worker here: as someone with occasionally 6+ hours of back to back meetings a day, the only solution for me was completely avoid sitting by promoting my desk to a standing one. Then I do calf stretches, occasional bending of the torso etc. Comes a lot more natural when standing compared to sitting.
Good for you. I've considered standing working environments but they'd be much more painful for me because I can't stand without pain for longer than 10-15 minutes - I need to walk lr sit down. But if it works, it's amazing. And stretches don't help much, but that's probably because I have a lot of vascular problems in my legs specifically
Actually this happened, then I came in to work one day to find a brand new monitor stand at the exact same height as my two reams of paper. Thank you boss~
@@lordmalachi6 Oh the office janitors took the reams of paper and put it back beside the fax machine 5 cubicles away from me. They're actually the reason why I secretly changed the drawer locks

Love this! How about a desk set up for those who are taking online classes? A space for a laptop, notebooks, and books, how to organize that? I'm kind of struggling with their placement since I need to use all of them at the same time and my desk is kinda small.
Had the same problems, this is what is did to solve them, I used spare books to prop up my iPad and placed it at the corner of the desk, tilted towards me, then aligned the chair so that I’m facing the iPad, this way I freed up some space for the notebooks and books
This is a truly important video for everyone that occasionally works at a desk, including students, office workers, and the countless tens of millions working with computers. Ergonomic research is a serious discipline with considerable research coming out of the space program a few decades ago, and continuing to today.
@@AlejandroLZuvic Good point. Set theoretically, regularly is a subset of occasionally, and occasionally would be more inclusive. I recommend the video for anyone occasionally working at a desk, and especially for those regularly working at a desk.
There is minimal evidence behind ergonomic interventions being important. Little to no research out there says "elbows have to be @ 90 degrees" or computer screen is "an arms length away". It all sounds great, but is it backed by anything? When these people can bring scientific research out that backs this stuff up, then they can start being important. Fear mongering at the start of "leaning, slouching etc. can lead to pain" is what this industry strives off. Best part of the video is at the end, giving exercises + saying to get up every hour. That is helpful, the changes before that are all unnecessary.
@@TTPF29 so, apart from standing from your chair some times a day your advice is slouch as much as you want and take whatever posture you wish so everything is all made up? I don't know man, it sounds like trying to get a normal resting position where your muscles arent looking like a knot is a good approach, even if following ALL the tips in the video is probably too much.
@@TTPF29 Yes, there is voluminous research and published findings. These studies began more than a century ago with so-called Time and Motion studies, which were done for assembly plants, offices, and the like. Numerous scholarly books were written on that subject through the 1950s when the aerospace industry took off. At that time other key words were often used, but Ergonomics became most often associated with such studies. Private industry and academia continued to research the field, but NASA and the military put big research into the field because of manned space flight and jet cockpit design, which must be optimal. Fortunately, many of these studies have been published by the government in large softback volumes and multi-volume sets resembling telephone books (in outward appearance). The volumes are impressive and broad in scope. This I know to be a fact because the research institution that I am affiliated with has more than two dozen of the aforementioned volumes.
@@lopesmorrenofim I’m talking about a mechanic sitting-stand desk, letting you easily switch between standing and sitting with the press of a button! Though they are quite expensive!

3 Years ago I saw this video and designed my desk, now everything takes care of itself, As I come back and see this video now, its all a part of my routine and my body feels so much better. Thank you
I ended up watching this same video whenever I get pain due to uncomfortable workspace setup. He have explained a lot perfectly even though the video is 4 years older than current date.
Ergonomics is such an underrated, or at least not very apparent, part of work (any type of work, from desksto kitchens to factories) and life in general. Most people invest a fair amount of money on taking care of our phones or computers, but usually not as much on taking care of ourselves, so it's great when companies prioritize ergonomics, taking care of their people through mostly small but impactful changes
Excellent. I just created a new workspace at home that I will further adjust. The footstool definitely helps! My physical therapist recommended those same exercises and they work. Also, because of chronic back issues I have added a large heating pad draped over the back of my chair that I use of off and on. Total game changer.
I am a Data Sci. and I use my pc literally everyday for hours. This is the reason I ordered an adjustable desk. It also gives a reminder to adjust to stand in every 2 hrs or whatever u set i feel much better now.
I did all those exercises/stretches subconsciously without evening knowing (or acknowledging that what I was doing was even an exercise or stretch) that they were actually a thing.. I had found over time and personal experience that stretching in those ways helped reset the "strain/tension timer" for those areas of my body so I just did them naturally without even questioning or thinking about it. Really neat how the human body and brain works if you think about it.. *Great* video btw, thank you so much for the well put/well thought inputs/incites/overall advice!!
I used to play CSGO w/ very slow 600 eDPI sensitivity (had to move the mouse 27.2727 inches for 360° rotation). Needless to say, my right shoulder socket started to develop RSI lol. I then slowed it down to 800 eDPI (20.4545 inches for 360° rotation), which is still slow, but that is the median (most popular) mouse sens for pros. The crazy thing is that Polish CSGO pro, MICHU, plays with insane 332 eDPI (49.2881"/360° rotation ). I don't know how he does it
Had this in "watch later" for like a year, I just now watched and applied it, my desk looks a lil weird but hopefully my neck stiffness will decrease. Thanks!
I played games on my pc my whole live, and now working as a video editor (and still playing games) it's safe to say that i spend a good portion of my life on a chair. I used to have lot's of pain in different areas over the years, and now i clicked on this video out of curiosity, just to find out that i actually setup everything in the correct way. And i just realized that I probably did it based on what's causing pain and what not.

bruh have you ever worked in a job where you have to stand all day? like bartending or a cook. It kills people, and those guys at least move around.

First step is to not buy a desk with drawers.
It takes up space between your arms and legs.

Excellent. I just created a new workspace at home that I will further adjust. The footstool definitely helps! My physical therapist recommended those same exercises and they work. Also, because of chronic back issues I have added a large heating pad draped over the back of my chair that I use of off and on. Total game changer.
Finally a well made video about desk ergonomics that isn't 20 minutes of rambling
Totally agree!

"If your desk is not in the right height, you can replace it with reams of paper"
Or buy a gaming desk with adjustable height, but this is meme so..
I did all those exercises/stretches subconsciously without evening knowing (or acknowledging that what I was doing was even an exercise or stretch) that they were actually a thing.. I had found over time and personal experience that stretching in those ways helped reset the "strain/tension timer" for those areas of my body so I just did them naturally without even questioning or thinking about it. Really neat how the human body and brain works if you think about it..
*Great* video btw, thank you so much for the well put/well thought inputs/incites/overall advice!!
So glad he emphasized the need for movement. It's such an important part of ergonomics.

Use a typewriter, and the reams of paper can act as a very slow connection.

This is the most useful information I have watched on the internet. EVER.
Instructions unclear, my chair is now on my fridge.

that's so hilarious
You're gonna need many many reams of paper...
The instructions are meabt for office use ONLY. Applying them to your home working place leads to unpredicted consequences.
You have a fridge in your office? That's fricking cool

Most useful vid I watched on youtube today
This video is sensational and highly educational. It is important to watch it several times and practice. it's worth it.
Expert: No shoulder movement

Darren Zhang as a lem - I can confirm
I used to play CSGO w/ very slow 600 eDPI sensitivity (had to move the mouse 27.2727 inches for 360° rotation).
Needless to say, my right shoulder socket started to develop RSI lol.
I then slowed it down to 800 eDPI (20.4545 inches for 360° rotation), which is still slow, but that is the median (most popular) mouse sens for pros.
The crazy thing is that Polish CSGO pro, MICHU, plays with insane 332 eDPI (49.2881"/360° rotation ). I don't know how he does it
Great video, but my co workers caught me taking 6 reams of paper from the printer room and they think I’m weird
Karen: i’m taking the kids
Jon: k, but do i keep the reams of paper?
Paul Richard Karen: Change of plans. I’m taking the reams of paper and you take the kids.
ahahahahah
Had this in "watch later" for like a year, I just now watched and applied it, my desk looks a lil weird but hopefully my neck stiffness will decrease. Thanks!
Get this guy a cup of coffee or something

Consider this as my funny comment about reams of paper.
Literally every mom that got this video shown by their kids: “I’m going to ignore everything I just saw.”
In comparison to some VERY BACIS hygiene rules, that my grandmother ignores and ignore all the proofs that I show - it's NOTHING.
Well, im fully notice about my family's economy condition so... Reams of paper it is

I played games on my pc my whole live, and now working as a video editor (and still playing games) it's safe to say that i spend a good portion of my life on a chair. I used to have lot's of pain in different areas over the years, and now i clicked on this video out of curiosity, just to find out that i actually setup everything in the correct way. And i just realized that I probably did it based on what's causing pain and what not.
