7 Reasons Why You Should Not Sit For A Long Time While Working by pediawap: 9:11am On Oct 13, 2017
The reason why you have paid more than $12,000 a year for a college certificate may be because you want to escape manual labor and working outdoors which is quite stressful for your physical body. However, a well – paying job that might come along with university debt, can be as harmful to your health as a manual job because sitting all day long can be as bad, if not worse than doing a manual job for your body. Regarding Dr. James Levine, the chief of the Mayo Clinic, sitting can be more harmful to health than smoking and more fatal than HIV as well.

Therefore, to reduce the risk of ailments associated with sitting and inactivity, you should exercise regularly – about 150 minutes a week at least, and you should reduce your sitting time as well. It is indicated that sitting all day long can link to being overweight, obese, some types of cancer and early death as well. Moreover, sitting for a long time can degrade your metabolism which subsequently imposes a threat to your body’s ability to stimulate blood sugar, break down body fat and regulate blood pressure. Even if you are not one of those who falls for a full-time desk job that requires long hours of sitting, the necessity of exercises is highly recommended to get rid of health risks associated with sitting. Here’s what can happen to your body once you spend a long period in a chair.
