Does your ass hurt from sitting on the chair all day at work?

Now that I'm back home for the summer I started working full time. My job requires me to program and post on AT. I sit all day only taking one 15 min break and a 30 min lunch. Well after working like this for a week my ass is starting to hurt from all that sitting. When I got home last night I had to lay down. I tried doing some work while standing up but it feels odd, and some people asked me, "wtf are you doing?".

Hmm I know a lot here sit in their cubicles most of the work day. Does the pain bother you?

Get up and do some stretching every 30 minutes or so. You'll thank yourself later.

i just plop a plunger down on my seat, and sit right down.

my chair is pretty comfortable and padded at work, but i just get up and walk around a lot, go to the bathroom, get a drink, take a shower.. wahtever

I have a rather comfy chair, actually, but I do notice my back gets a little sore if I don't stand up once in a while.

There is also a cure you can administer when you get home: :beer::D

If I were you, I would get up at least once an hour to get a new cup of water or something. I am sure the extra blood movement will help you get through the "pain" if that even still continues once you start mvoing around more.

I love my Herman Miller Aeron chair at work. So no my ass doesn't hurt after sitting all day. However, I do get up and stretch every 30 minutes or so. That helps matters a lot. :)

You just need to butt clench everyonce in awhile. Or have someone come over and rub your a55.
