The adverse effects of sitting for too long

The average nine to five working class spends seven hours every day sitting down. Most people use a method of transportation to travel home after spending a considerable amount of time stationary.

A growing amount of research indicates that sitting for long periods of time is bad for your health. Obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, deep vein thrombosis, and metabolic syndrome risk factors are all increased by habitual inactivity. A sedentary lifestyle should be avoided to stay healthy for longer.
