Let’s Get Moving.
Many people make a living being sedentary. It’s not something we should be ashamed of, just something that has become ingrained in our culture. Activity, in the past, was built into a typical workday. As our society has changed, the activity that was once a part of daily life has been replaced with sedentary jobs requiring little to no physical activity.What we know about the daily benefits of activity.
In a recent Annals of Medicine post, it is suggested that being sedentary is detrimental to our health. Not good news for the average adult who is sedentary for 12.3 hours every day during waking hours! Our health depends on us spending a large part of our day moving! 8 hours a day at a desk-bound job can harm our health. The good news is there are simple solutions! At Varier, we believe homes and offices should consider a rethink of their antiquated seating with some active sitting solutions.
