Straight Desks — Expert Answer
How do I set up a straight desk ergonomically for all-day use?
An ergonomic straight desk setup starts with proper desk height: seated with feet flat on the floor, your forearms should rest at or just below desk height with elbows at approximately 90 degrees. Standard desk height (29–30 inches) fits most people but not all — consider an adjustable-height desk if you're significantly taller or shorter than average. Monitor should be at arm's length, with the top of the screen at or slightly below eye level. Add a monitor arm to fine-tune screen position. Keyboard and mouse should be at elbow height with wrists neutral. Add a keyboard tray if your desk height is slightly high. An ergonomic chair completes the picture.
