I stand for the first hour of daylight and last hour before sunset. I sit the rest of the time with the occasional stretch, drink break, ect. Not to much movement in the blind though.

I move a bit to to stay stretched. If I am sitting all day I will climb down and stretch for a min then climb back up. I always take my bow though....

i also take "standing breaks". but ive found that the only reason i get "antsy" to move around is because my mind isnt being active. so i take a small book, a new testament (the cover is actually green too) and a game boy micro (i know i know....boo!) but hey it keeps my mind active, and me still, and thats all that matters!

I sit as long as I can, but usually take quite a few stand breaks.

I usually do 45 min standing, 15 sitting in the morning and evening, but in the afternoon I switch to more sitting than standing. that is mostly because i would rather shoot standing than sitting.

i am incredibly fidgity in stand, but i make a concious effort to be as still as possible. if i have to move, i make it very slow and keep everything close to my body.

That's a good point, and it's one that I use. I don't move that much, but when I do, I move slowly.
