Sitting is deadly. It'll kill you. The rapidly accumulating evidence is scary. I'll talk more about it next Saturday live on the radio. In the mean time a few tips if your job is sedentary:
- Set an alarm on your computer to remind you that you need to get up and move about every hour.
- Stand during coffee breaks and telephone calls.
- Use the stairs in your office minimum every two hours even if it's only to go up and down a single flight.
- Stretch your neck, back every few hours.
Sitting is the new smoking. This means you gotta be active and sit less, way, way less.
