Even if you get plenty of exercise, lots of sitting is a serious health risk. Not only is sitting around bad for your heart, circulation, and blood sugar, now it's ben linked to cancer.
So don't just sit around - stand up and stretch for a few minutes. Walk around, get on your feet to talk on the phone, take a lap around the house during commercials.
Stand up for a few minutes every half-hour - you'll live longer and feel better! And remember to get at least 30 minutes of walking or other exercise every day, too.
Read the You Docs column:
What are you doing just sitting there? Get up!
