Your body was not designed to sit for 10 hours a day. And it's telling you in every ache, every stiff joint, every sluggish afternoon.
Research on sedentary behavior shows that prolonged sitting is associated with increased risks of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and all-cause mortality, even among people who exercise regularly. The solution isn't necessarily to sit less. The solution is to interrupt sitting more often.
Every 30 to 60 minutes, stand up. Walk for even 90 seconds. Stretch. Do 10 squats. Refill your water. Take a lap around your house.
These breaks reset your circulation, reduce back strain, and signal to your metabolism that you are still alive.
