I just threw out my shitty desk chair and rearranged things so I can stand. But...i'm overweight-putting extra stress on my joints and heart. Should I try this standing desk business for a while or is it going to backfire?

Get or make a treadmill desk. If you just stand, know that you'll have to sit now and then to avoid long term damage; varicose veins and so forth. If sitting, get up from your chair every thirty minutes and walk around.

what if I just move around instead? what if I pretend im a dj and bounce and dance around? I also like to shadow kung-fu

You would just trade ass pain and hemorrhoids for leg pain and varicose veins.

wizardbro?
How do you stand without placing too much pressure on your wrist? Your arms can't just hang in the air for that long eventually you will be resting them on something. While sitting you have the chair's arms for this so that when positioned correctly, your strong forearms rest on the armrest with your wrists/palms hanging freely. Wrist rests don't work. They provide a little temporary relief but long term is the same problem.
I think the only real solution is to have multiple setups. Standing, sitting AND laying down -- all three. Each will fatigue you uniquely and each position provides relief to fatigue from one of the other.

my legs and feet already hurt but my asshole feels 200 times better. get fucked kek

laying down gets uncomfortable too particularly in the neck area and it's impossible to control a mouse like that you need a trackball and it's awkward but yeah, it's the most comfy

I used a mouse like that, make it hang from the cable in the right position for your hand and its totally ok. the cable should be fixed to the desk about 7cm above your hand

If your asshole protrudes so far out that sitting causes pain you should probably try suing your father for all that kiddy buttsex that has ruined your anus. You can use the money to get it fixed.

Wait why does your asshole hurt? You're just sitting down, do you mean like your ass as a whole or do you literally mean your asshole?
I sit on a fucking wood chair. Because of it I have an internal hemorrhoid. Too poor to buy a real chair.
