i think {no pun intended) a more common question and more pertinent is what do you do. and you should wonder why the constant walking back and forth?. perhaps you feel you need to include more motor skills to dilute the boredom of repetition. just an opinion. otherwise good information.
P.S. i am a retired electrician.
