A new study of 83,000 adults found that standing for more than 2 hours a day not only doesn’t protect against cardiovascular risks, but it heightens an individual’s risk of circulatory problems.
The rise of standing desks is a result of what I like to csll “wet streets cause rain” style analysis.
Because people who sit around a lot are usually unfit, people decided the fix was standing around a lot instead of physical activity.
