I have the most luxurious standing desk imaginable, but I can’t quite bring myself to game while standing

For more than two-and-a-half years, I’ve been blessed to call the inimitable Secretlab Magnus Pro my main workspace. A colossal sit-stand desk, the hulking slab of metal comes with a nifty integrated sit-stand controller, two gargantuan legs, extensive cable management, and an eye-wateringly expensive magnetic ecosystem — the entire surface is magnetic, and can be used with a range of metal cable management devices, headphone stands, and cable sleeves. It is truly the Rolls-Royce of office furniture, vast and expensive, the purview of only the most hardcore work surface connoisseurs.

Yet on reflection of my time behind Secretlab’s (probably) bombproof behemoth, I’ve come to the awful realization that I might have played myself. Somewhere along the way these last two years, I simply stopped standing up to use this desk, a full 50% of this desk’s potential left on the table, if you’ll pardon the pun. More specifically, I’ve realized that I own one of the world’s most luxurious standing desks for gaming, yet I never stand up to game.
