According to H and L Office Furniture, your body needs a break. Just like you would in a workout schedule at the gym, you need to mix things up and let the worked-out muscles rest.
Switch the hand you use for the mouse. This will take a little practice at first, but your other hand can learn to use the mouse with a little training, and the break will be appreciated by the hand and wrist accustomed to doing this work.
Set up hotkeys. Many computer programs will allow users to use hotkeys instead of using a number of keystrokes. Such as using Ctrl+P to print instead of having to go through 3-4 other steps to get to the same place.
Switch your position. Take a break from typing to do some filing, sorting, or any other activity. If you do not have any such activity to complete, just take a break for the sake of getting up and moving about.
Stretch. While you are up, and if you can take a brisk walk, even if it is just around the office. It is a way to get blood flowing throughout the body and to let some muscles that have been sitting still too long get moving, while giving a break to the ones you generally use at the desk.
Think of your days work like a workout. Your body does and needs the same kinds of breaks you would give it in the gym.
