It's no surprise that e-sports pros spend most of their day sitting in a chair -- a position that can increase stress on spinal structures, which can lead to a host of health problems.
Therefore, in order to minimize the waist, back and other parts of the injury or serious, having an ergonomic and suitable gaming chair is essential for professional gaming players, it can provide good support for the back, correct and keep players in a good posture.
So which ergonomic gaming chair is the best? There is a wide variety of gaming chair for professional players and e-sports fans choosing on the market , but there is no best gaming chair, only the most suitable for their own gaming chair.
In an ergonomic gaming chair, some features are very important. These features need to be controllable to meet the individual needs of each player. Let's study together, what are the characteristics of a good gaming chair:
1.The seat height of the gaming chair should be easy to adjust. For most people, the seat is generally between 41-53cm from the ground. The height of the seat is determined by the length of the shin so that the feet are flat on the floor, the thighs are level on the floor, and the forearms are on the same plane as the table.
Matters needing attention:
a. The knee should be kept within a 90-100° range.
b. Feet must be flat on the ground.
c. The chair should not be in contact with the table top. Consider raising the table height if necessary.
2.The seat should have enough depth, usually 43-51 cm wide is the standard size. It require enough depth so that the player can lean back while leaving 2-3 inches between his knees and the seat of the chair. The goal is to get good thigh support and reduce or even avoid any stress behind the knee joint.
Matters needing attention:
The required seat depth is determined by the length of the femur. A longer femur requires a deeper seat, while a shorter femur requires a relatively shallow seat.
3.The seat should be adjustable in either forward or backward tilt and should be flat or slightly forward to help keep the pelvis in an optimal neutral position.
4.We know that the lumbar spine is a forward curve, a long time in the sitting position and lack of support can easily lead to structural changes in the lumbar spine, followed by low back pain, lumbar muscle strain and other problems. An ergonomic chair should have the waist support to support the forward curve of the lower back.
5.The back of an ergonomic chair should be 30-48 cm wide. The backrest should be 90-100° from the seat to reduce pressure on the lower back.
6.The better the armrest of the gaming chair is adjustable. The proper height of the armrest can provide support for the player, keep the forearm supported, the forearm parallel to the floor, and elbow bending about 90-100°, which can reduce or even avoid carpal tunnel syndrome and high and low shoulder posture.
7.The gaming chair should be made of breathable fabric or leather, with sponges thick enough to support prolonged use, soft and elastic to prevent excessive pressure on the pelvis.
8.Safety is one of the most important conditions of gaming chair, we must see whether the gas lift is with SGS or BIFMA approved certification.
