extra calories, tones muscles, increases blood flow
and metabolism.
It is much better to

back pain.

term.

Height-Adjustment Brake
The height of
the cart’s head-unit locks firmly in
place, making its worksurface a
sturdy and solid platform. To
re-adjust the worksurface height
(e.g. move from a sitting to a
standing position), one simply
squeezes the hand-brake lever, which
is conveniently located at the side
of the worksurface, while
simultaneously lifting for proper
placement. Releasing the lever then
re-establishes the brake.

The science behind
the need to stand
-
A
January 2010 British Journal of Sports Medicine
article
suggests that
people who sit for long periods of time have an
increased risk of
disease.
-
An
American Cancer Society study of 120,000 adults,
published in the
July 2010 American Journal of Epidemiology,
suggests that the
more people sit, the shorter their average life
span. What’s more,
the findings were independent of physical
activity level
such as people who exercise outside of work.
-
A
2010 University of Queensland, Australia study
found that
even when adults
meet physical activity guidelines, sitting for
prolonged periods
can compromise metabolic health.
The benefits to many … are many!
