14 desk setup upgrades that ACTUALLY matter

Because I primarily work from a desk

pretty much every single day,

sometimes spending up to 12 hours

at my desk,

depending on what I'm working on.

I've spent over ten years

creating different desk setups

where finding and adjusting continuing

to create the most ergonomic

and comfortable desk sets up

So I like to think I know a thing or two

about what

it takes to make a great desk set up.

In this video, I wanted to cover various

different desk setup upgrades

one should consider

when creating that own setup.

I want to make it clear though,

that you don't have to buy

every single thing

that I am mentioning in this video.

I just wanted to make

some recommendations.

You can choose whatever you like

based on your budget and your preferences.

First up is of course

the main centrepiece of the setup,

and that's the desk.

One major and very important factor

that everyone needs to consider

when purchasing a desk

is not actually the width of the desk,

but they should be considering

the depth of the desk.

So this is something I learned the hard way.

If your arms don't have support

your elbows don't have support,

and they're kind of just floating while so

using your keyboard or mouse

that can actually result in aching pains

in your trapezius muscles,

the muscle that are here and here

and you definitely dont want that.

So it's really important to consider

a desk that is deep enough

to rest your arms on.

Another solution to that

is to have arm rest.

So if your chair has

ajustable arm rest

making the arm rest the same

height as your desk

can also make a big diffrence.

The desk i have here

is from Vernal, who are also

is sponsoring this video.

This is one from the new solid wood range

which is made from real Walnut.

It look and feels absolutely incredible.

Im personally a huge fan of Walnut

I love the way it looks, I love the way it feels.

It's a very premium luxirous wood.

Great way to add some warmth to a setup.

I have the larger one here, which is

180 cm wide and 75 cm deep.

The depthof this desk is perfect as it has

enough space for my arms,

keyboard and mouse, whilst also being

able to easily fit
