I too experienced the same thing, but I have a yoga teacher next door and according to him: 1. Keep changing the position 2. Take a revolving chair with arms 3. After 30 minutes, just turn around in the chair for 2 minutes 4. After every 1 hour, get up from chair and walk inside your office/residence 5. Do not take lunch/ dinner/breakfast at computer table. Change the place 6. Go for 1 hour walk in the morning or if you are youngster jog. 7. One can do 8 to 10 hours without any problem provided you follow the above.
