Does anyone use an exercise ball as their chair at work?

I just bought one and brought it into work today, however, even fully inflated, I sit too low at my desk to use my keyboard. I bought a 75cm ball.
Do you have any suggestions on how to elevate the ball so I sit properly at my desk while on it?

Means they want to "bump" it up on their list of recent topics to view later, but they don't really have anything to add at the moment.0 -

Bump is used to tag the post so you can find it later under "My topics" - Really, you can type anything so it goes there.0 -

Thanks Maryann - I saw these as well but was looking for a less expensive route :-) :bigsmile:0 -
just be careful that you are sitting high enough that your arms aren't reaching UP to the keyboard. you will begin to feel it the wrong way in your shoulders and back. if you use a keyboard tray, much better. your arms should be able to look like an "L" from the side, shoulders comfortable, arms at your side with your elbows near your body.0
