Confirmed: He Who Sits the Most Dies the Soonest... Fuck

[johnmatrix]

People think they're healthy because they go to the gym 3 times a week for an hour at a time, the rest of the time is driving, light walking and sitting. Their heart rate would have a few spikes a week.

--------|-----------|------------|----------

Then you've got someone who is on their feet all day, like a waitress perhaps, and it looks like:

-|||||--|||||--||||||--|||||--|||||--||||||

Pretty obvious who's going to have the healthier cardiovascular system, and less risk of dying from heart related problems.

This is why I try to get up every 30-45 mins and walk around for 5-10 minutes. Also, I lift 5 days a week and play basketball 3-4 times a week as well. Still won't eliminate the problems with sitting so much, but it's better than nothing.

Although there are infinite variables, some of which might have strong correlations, I'll jump on a conclusion because I'm an idiot and most people are even dumber and will buy it too.

Sounds like bullshit to me. I have sat at least half my life and I made it to 36.
