Any suggestions for permanent standing desks that are "fancier" like a traditional desk? For example maybe made of solid wood, maybe with drawers, maybe with a closed back and side sections?
Solid Wood Desk Decision
Large desk that lasts
The Perfect Gaming Desk
Jokes aside your desk and chair setup are very important for ergonomics. Long gaming sessions call for good posture and a proper setup can help a lot with that.
It's the same as office work, I had an ergonomics assessment done at work where they set up my desk and I can really feel the difference after a long day.
The chair height is low enough for my feet to be planted on the ground with my knees at a 90 degree angle, keyboard and mouse are basically in my lap where my shoulders are relaxed and arms by my side while using them. Monitor is an arms length away and overall it feels a lot better than what I had before. Back is slightly inclined but I think there's some flexibility there between straight and JDM.
I tried to emulate it at home but my desk is too tall so I brought home a foot stool from work and it feels great.
It sounds funny but having a consistent posture you can lock into every time you play is actually really helpful for performance consistency. Let my boy Ron Rambo Kim learn you something! https://youtu.be/8qr4Xt0Pw8g
