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.
