Sitting for too long has been associated with increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, abnormal cholesterol levels, and low back pain and injury. 👎

Here are some tips that can help to combat these symptoms:

✔ Take a break from sitting every 30 minutes.
✔ Stand while talking on the phone or watching television.
✔ Try a standing desk — or improvise with a high table or counter.
✔ Walk with your friends for meetings rather than sitting in a conference room.

Try these tips out, and please give us a call if you’ve developed pain or stiffness due to sitting too much. ✅
