HOW DOES ANTI-FATIGUE MATTING WORK?
Standing for long periods of time on hard floor surfaces is
very uncomfortable and causes physical fatigue. Leg muscles
become totally static and constricted as they work overtime
to keep that person in an upright position. Blood flow is
greatly reduced causing pain and discomfort. Workers who
were forced to stand on hard concrete floors for long periods
of time suffered significant levels of fatigue and discomfort in
the legs, back, and throughout the body. On the other hand,
workers who stood on anti-fatigue mats were able to reduce
the level of fatigue and discomfort by as much as 50%.
If a person is allowed to stand on an anti-fatigue mat, his
muscles will subtly contract and expand as they adjust to the
flexibility of the mat. This muscle movement increases
blood-flow and increases the amount of oxygen reaching the
heart. In that, reducing the fatigue levels of the worker
or office person to a minimal, which translates to higher productivity overall?
DOES ANTI-FATIGUE MATTING REALLY HELP THAT MUCH?
Anti-fatigue mats are some of the best things you can spend your money on these days. They
improve your ergonomics, your body mechanics and they even make you feel better. They are
similar to eye glasses in that they give you an immediate performance boost. Eye glasses
immediately improve you vision. Anti-fatigue mats immediately make the task more
comfortable and efficient (i.e. ergonomically supported) Standing still is harder on your body
than almost anything else. The body is designed to move and be dynamic, not sit there with a
static load pressing down on your joints and crushing your blood vessels flat. That causes a lot of
strain and fatigue on the body and creates pressure points which are really uncomfortable.
An anti-fatigue mat reduces all of that. Even a cheap anti-fatigue mat is most likely worth
it when compared to standing on bare tile, concrete, or any other hard surface.
