My Sedentary Life

Phys Ed: The Men Who Stare at Screens

Most of us have heard that sitting is unhealthy. But many of us also have discounted the warnings, since we spend our lunch hours conscientiously visiting the gym. We consider ourselves sufficiently active. But then we drive back to the office, settle at our desks and sit for the rest of the day. We are, in a phrase adopted by physiologists, ‘‘active couch potatoes.’’

Certainly an interesting read regarding our sitting habits and our health. Do you sit or stand while working?
