Sitting on your ass could kill you

What if I would tell you that you could sit on your ass. After a recently carried out study on the health risks connected to the management of a seated lifestyle, she will sit down next time when you watch TV all night …

How much time a day do you regularly devote physical activity? Did you know that adults should spend at least 30 minutes a day for physical activity? Well, you should do it if you take care of your health.

If you read this column, you will probably sit at your desk. In this case, you won’t get up and run around, and the consequences are that you may lose your life for years, only when you sit!

A study published a few days ago indicates that long periods of time sitting for seats, 70,000 deaths in Great Britain contributed to 70,000 deaths in 2016 and costs the NHS £ 700 million per year. You can learn more about this research from this Daily Mail article.

This report by the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health states that a sitting lifestyle was associated with 70,000 deaths per year.

A sitting lifestyle is a kind of lifestyle that contains little or no physical activity at all. A person who lives a sitting lifestyle often sits and leans on activity such as reading, conviviality, television, playing video games or using a mobile phone/computer for a large part of the day. Does that describe how it is for you?

We really only give us a health warning. Sitting can be bad for your health. Unfortunately, more and more people seem to have a seated lifestyle. This despite the amount of advertising that promotes the health benefits of physical activity.

Studies show that many of them sit for nine hours a day or more and that is not only at work – because their free time is often dominated by the screen, regardless of whether this is possible in front of the television or surf the net on a computer or tablet. This is undoubtedly endangered your health.

I trained in the gym a few morning ago and talked to a guy on the next bench. I see him most of the days in there to push yourself. He has Parkinson’s, which you can only see by shaking a slight shaking in his left arm. He knows how important it is that he trains regularly to ensure that he keeps the effects of Parkinson’s chess. We both understand how important it is to use our body and to put them to the limits.

We already knew that spending large parts of the day increased the risk of cardiovascular diseases, type -2 -diabetes, cancer and death and polluted health services. It is also one of the main causes of obesity epidemic. All just because people don’t get enough physical activity.

The researchers say that results indicate that 11.6% of all deaths were associated with sedentary behaviors and that 69,276 deaths were avoided in 2016 if the sedentary behavior in Great Britain was eliminated.

So the message is clear. Too many people spend their free time sitting and sitting at work for hours. The costs are that this can kill them in the end.

In truth, this is not new. The connection between illness and sitting occurred for the first time in the 1950s when the researchers found that London bus drivers had twice as often heart attacks as their bus colleagues.

It is important that you move. In order to ward off the effects of a seated lifestyle, it is important to move more every day.

It does not have to mean important changes to the lifestyle. Everything you have to do is to start building physical activity every day.

By changing the lifestyle, I talk about a variety of small things that you can do, which together contributes to the fact that you are far more physically active.

• Avoid long periods of time available in front of a television or computer
• Stand up and move
• Go up and down the stairs instead of taking the elevator
• Go around while talking on the phone
• Limit the time you spend it to see away
• Go and have talk meetings
• For short distances, choose your car about walking
• Take your dog out for longer walks, get a dog if you don’t have one.
• Get a hiking buddy or join a community-based activity, such as: B. dance courses and hiking groups
• Go or ride to work by bike
• Take a bus stop away from your destination from your destination
• Take gardening, mow the lawn, sharpen the courtyard and pour your plants!
• Take an active game with the children or grandchildren

Going gets the feet in motion, the blood moves, the mind moves. And movement is life.

For those among them who are willing to increase it and ensure that you make yourself healthy through physical activity, concentrate on adding additional activity in your day, five days a week. Get a pedometer (a device that counts the number of steps you take). Did you know that 10,000 steps a day of half an hour of walking? These 30 minutes would be the best 30 minutes you could spend on your health. Going 10,000 steps a day is the ideal goal to improve health and reduce the health risks caused by inactivity, according to the World Health Organization.

If you take something out of today’s article, please make sure that you sit down all day, including work, and try to increase your daily physical activity.

Regardless of age, physical activity is the best way to take care of our physical and mental health.

I think that I cannot keep my health and ghosts unless I spend at least four hours a day – and it is usually more than that – stroll through the forest and over the hills and fields, absolutely free of all secular engagements.
