Research has repeatedly linked sitting for long periods of time to health concerns, including the development of obesity and heart disease. But, if you have to work at a desk, it’s hard to know what to do. That’s why plenty of people are using standing desks.

These genius desks allow you to power through your workday while standing on your own two feet — not plopped down on your butt. And, if you need to sit for a bit, it’s no problem: Simply lower your desktop.

Standing desks can be pricey, but not today: Amazon has slashed prices more than 30 percent off a huge selection of top-rated Flexispot standing desks and best-selling s tand ing desk converters .

There are a lot of different options to choose from to elevate your work from home set-up — literally — but you definitely won’t want to miss these.
