"It doesn’t matter if you go running every morning, or you’re a regular at the gym. If you spend most of the rest of the day sitting - in your car, your office chair, on your sofa at home - you are putting yourself at increased risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, a variety of cancers and an early death. In other words, irrespective of whether you exercise vigorously, sitting for long periods is bad for you."
— Olivia Judson (NYT) (I’m shocked- shocked- to learn that sitting down for 9 hours a day is bad for your health.)
