The media is, as they say, having a “field day” with the research on how bad sitting is for you. This is perfect isn’t it? Take something we do every day and almost can’t escape doing (sitting) and find some research (no matter how good/bad) on how bad it is for you and then go crazy with it.

Does anyone know if there really is anything to the claims about how bad sitting is? I mean, of course “leading a sedentary lifestyle” isn’t good for you - your doctor will tell you that. I just find the media attention on sitting to be very interesting. Michael Michael A.
