Proper Typing Posture
General comfort and setup advice for typing.
Set up your seat and desk
Sit so your feet rest flat and your elbows fall roughly at desk height, letting your forearms stay close to level with the keyboard. Keep the screen about an arm's length away with the top near eye level. These are general comfort suggestions, not medical advice.
Relax your hands and wrists
Let your wrists float rather than pressing hard into the desk edge, and keep your hands relaxed instead of tense. Light, springy keystrokes are faster and more comfortable than hammering the keys.
Take regular breaks
Short, frequent breaks help you stay comfortable during long typing sessions. Stand, stretch your hands, and rest your eyes periodically. If you ever feel persistent pain or discomfort, stop and consider seeking advice from a qualified professional.
