“Your back isn’t straight – it has curves to it” says Katharine. “And ‘sitting up straight’ generally sounds like hard work. We don’t want you to be working hard at your posture! Let’s let the equipment do the work and take the strain. I’d encourage you to move frequently when you stand and sit too, because moving is a very important aspect of looking after your back.”
