Pain Fixes
You usually notice it after you’ve been working for a while, when your arms never quite relax against the desk.

Tension usually doesn’t show up because something went wrong. It shows up because the body stayed in one position for too long without enough interruption.

Shoulder pain sitting in a chair is annoying because the chair doesn’t feel bad. Nothing pokes.

Desk Setup
A keyboard doesn’t have to feel loose to cause extra work. Sometimes it’s just a little flex in the keys, or a tray that dips when you press down. Typing keeps going. Nothing seems off. At some point, the shoulders feel heavier than expected. They sit a little higher, and sometimes you roll them once,

You sit down to work and notice it’s harder to stay with than it should be, the same line gets reread, the chair shifts, shoulders roll once, then again, even though nothing hurts enough to explain what’s off.
