I've not really paid attention to it but I wonder if it is at least partially due to his height. Keeping the product display in the camera shot, or because he sometimes needs to bend forward to get the shot right for the camera.

I think he's trying to create an air of comfort and relatability with his audience, like friends having a chat.

David can do things now that he couldn't do before he lost the weight. Sitting on the counter is like when I lost 70 pounds many years ago, after having my son, and I could finally cross my legs when I sat down. I hadn't done that in years. David never sat on the counter like that before.
He also puts his hand deep inside his jeans pocket a lot while talking. He never did that before either. It's discovering the little things all over again.

Countersit #2! Countersit! Countersit Alert!
..... for those who contend that it doesn't happen
Has nothing to do with health.
Nothing to do with age.
And he gets plenty of break time when his "assistant" takes over presentations.

I don't think it's an age thing and it likely doesn't have anything to do with age. The show is 3 hours long for heaven's sake. That's a heckuva long time to stand regardless of one's age.

David frequently sits on the counter in one of the sets (the one in a corner where they display items along back shelves and a sink wall). I think he just does it because he wants to, and it doesn't seem to have any correlation to amount of time standing since that set seems to be used more often on Wednesdays when the show is almost always only two hours. I think it's weird for anyone to sit on a counter, even if food isn't really being prepared; it doesn't specifically bother me when David does it, but it does stand out as being unnecessary and slightly disconnected from the presentations.
