SITTING IS THE NEW SMOKING – HUMANS ARE MEANT TO MOVE!

Yep, you read that right: new studies suggest that sitting for long periods of time without
movement is as bad for our bodies as smoking!
That might seem extreme, but consider this: human beings were meant to move. Our bodies
are designed to run, jump, lift, squat, swim and do all kinds of movements that we just don’t
do anymore on a regular basis.
Many of us find ourselves in sedentary jobs that require we sit for long periods of time. That
sitting only makes us more tired and lethargic. Ever noticed how, after a long day at work,
all you want to do is go home and crash on the sofa? Sitting begets sitting.
If you have a job that requires you to sit for long periods of time, try these quick tips to get
your body moving again.
