💺GAMING ERGONOMICS

Play Hard. Sit Smart. Win Longer.

You’ve got the playlist, the bankroll, the bonuses. But if your back’s screaming, your eyes are dry, and your wrists feel like pretzels — you’re playing on borrowed time.

Welcome to iGaming’s most underrated power-up: ergonomics.

🪑 Why Ergonomics Matter in iGaming

iGaming sessions — especially intense ones — often stretch into hours. And while your focus stays on the screen, your body quietly takes damage: slouching posture, strained eyes, stiff joints.

The result?

• Lower focus and reaction time

• Physical fatigue masquerading as “bad luck”

• Long-term issues like headaches, back pain, or carpal tunnel

Better ergonomics = better stamina = sharper decisions.

🛠️ Level Up Your Setup (Without a Pro Studio)

For Desktop & Laptop Players:

• Chair Check: Support your lower back with a pillow or lumbar pad.

• Screen Height: Top third of the screen should align with your eyes.

• Elbow Logic: Keep elbows at 90°, wrists straight and supported.

• Lighting Vibes: Avoid glare and harsh contrast — soft, ambient light is king.

• 20-20-20 Rule: Every 20 mins, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.

• Break Rituals: Stretch, stand, hydrate every hour.

📱 Mobile Player Edition: Stay Smart on the Small Screen

Playing from your phone? These tweaks go a long way:

• Avoid the Neck Crank Hold your phone at eye level or prop it up. Don't hunch!

• Wrist Watch Switch hands frequently and avoid holding the phone too tightly for long.

• Finger Fatigue Fix Use stylus pens or play in short bursts to reduce joint stress.

• Brightness Balance Lower brightness in dark environments to protect your eyes — but keep it high enough to avoid squinting.

• Mini Breaks, Major Gains Every 15 minutes, pause and wiggle your fingers, roll your shoulders, and look up.

🧘 Pro Tips for Long-Term Play

• Warm-ups help: Do some wrist and neck circles before sessions.

• Night mode = bright idea: Blue light filters are a must.

• Foot on deck: Even at a desk, keeping feet flat improves posture.
