A 2012 study from the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity found that, on average, people spend 64 hours a week sitting, 28 hours standing, and 11 hours lounging around regardless of whether or not they exercised 150 minutes a week.
That’s over nine hours of sitting a day.
Prolonged sitting invariably leads to slouching, and comes with a host of other problems that are typical of poor posture.
Here are 7 effects of sitting posture on your health.
As a rule of thumb, for every hour of sitting try standing for 10-15 mins.
If you’re a desk jockey at work, consider a standing desk instead. Getting on your feet works the valves in your leg veins, sending blood up to your heart.
Get moving!
