You’re also more at risk of developing certain types of cancer.

So with the bad news out of the way, preventing this from happening is simple. Switch from sitting to standing.

In order to counteract your sitting time, its suggested you stand for an equal amount of hours to sitting. Spend three hours seated and three standing.

This can be simply achieved with ergonomic adjustable sit-stand desk, which will allow you to stand comfortably while working.

Most modern versions of sit-stand desks are completely adjustable so you can simply switch between sitting and standing.
