If it wasn't already clear through common sense, it's become painfully clear through science that sitting all day is terrible for your health. What's especially alarming about this evidence is that extra physical activity doesn't seem to offset the costs of what researchers call "prolonged sedentary time." Just as jogging and tomato juice don't make up for a night of smoking and drinking, a little evening exercise doesn't erase the physical damage done by a full work day at your desk.

In response some people have turned to active desks—be it a standing workspace or even a treadmill desk—but the research on this recent trend has been too scattered to draw clear conclusions on its benefits (and potential drawbacks). At least until now. A trio of Canada-based researchers has analyzed the strongest 23 active desk studies to draw some conclusions on how standing and treadmill desks impact both physiological health and psychological performance.
