Same problem. And my back ends up aching. I don't know why orthopedists
say it's better to sit straight when my back ends up sore; I must be
doing something wrong.

Swim. And hope those muscles are strong enough to deal with whatever
silly posture you throw at them. Also, get a really good chair (like
the BodyBilt by Chair Works, 3900 Texas Ave. South, Ste. 107, College Station,
TX 77845, Tel: 409-693-7000, not cheap, but much cheaper than being
unable to work for over 2 months due to RSI). A table at the correct
height also helps.
