I'm constantly changing. Up, down, up, down, cross legged on my chain, up . Long compile - pace back and forth for a few minutes. It drives my co-workers nuts at times, but it is much better for the body.

#53I've got an Aeron. I've been through a few others far cheaper and near enough as good for sitting in but they broke so quickly with effectively zero customer service about that the 10 year guarantee was worth it. I've had it about 5 years now, no issues with it whatsoever, but if there ever are past the guarantee period the parts market is pretty robust for them.
2nd hand I paid barely £300 for it. Worth every cent, like when a good CRT monitor made a difference.
