    @MelLivesLife I recently found this girl she is such inspiration for shovelling movement into every hour of the day. It’s inspiring.

    Sedentary “era”, or did you wordsmith, sedentary “error”?
    It’s both.
    I wonder which is more responsible for it, the workplace or the television?

    This powerful short makes it plain how millions and millions of people can get off certain medications naturally and relatively easily with just 5 minutes of regular movement (even short walks) breaks every 1/2 hour. Even a one minute walk is better than nothing. The average person he says, only takes 4 to 5 movement breaks a day.

    I work at a factory. I’m on my feet moving around 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I’m still exhausted all the time. I don’t know if I want any more exercise than I already get, honestly.

    Sitting in some yogic poses can be beneficial. Ancient yogis used to sit long hours without moving. Someone should research this instead of asking people with desk jobs to keep moving

      Excellent point. Sitting cross-legged on the floor or chair, upright and not leaning back sounds like a workout on its own. But with training the muscles don’t need to hold any tension as the skeletal system alone supports the pose, no wonder hours can go by!

    If you sit all day for work, then you should def be in the gym 3 to 4 days a week. Back extensions and jogging are the best workout for sitters
