Sitting is harmful to your health. If you already accept that as a fact this may be surprising to you: sitting is so detrimental to your health that exercising for 30 minutes a day doesn’t offset its negative effects. This is a problem for desk workers who spend eight to nine hours a day just at work sitting! It doesn’t include when we’re sitting during our commute or while we relax in front of TV during the evening at home.
There is one surefire way to ensure you offset the negative effects of sitting all day: you have to get up and move. This infographic from Health Perch covers some stretches to get you moving, focus and even de-stress at work.
