The study published by Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association found out that it is not just heart disease; risks from cancer and stroke are also possible. So, here are some few tips in lessening your stationary time and become healthy and fit.
* Cut down your chair time. Try to get up and do some stretching once an hour. Opt to get a drink or use the restroom on another floor. You may also take a quick walk around the block during your regular breaks.
* If your company has amenities such as a gym, a lot some time to do workouts at the office.
* Instead of the elevator, take the stairs. Walk or bike to work when possible.
