In addition to staying up late, sitting for a long time is the second-ranked chronic suicide! Three types of diseases are like shadows in the wind
Sitting for long periods is a difficult thing for people in today's society to avoid. Students need to sit for a long time in class and do homework, office workers need to sit in front of computers for a long time to work, and drivers sit and drive for a long time. Even if they occasionally entertain themselves in life, they still sit and watch movies and play chess.
According to guidelines issued by the Public Health Agency of Canada, sedentary refers to sitting still for more than 8 to 12 hours a day. Hearing this, many people may think it doesn't matter. After all, they haven't been sitting for so long. However, everyone's physique is different and their ability to endure sitting for long periods of time is different. Although sitting for the same time, some people in the office are fine, while others often feel sore back pain.
Sitting for a long time not only harms the waist, back, and neck, but because sitting for a long time, the muscles are pulled and the posture is easily deformed. Over time, problems such as cervical spondylosis and lumbar disc herniation emerge. In addition, American scholars have also found that people who sit for more than ten hours have an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, stroke, liver disease, Parkinson's disease, depression, digestive system diseases, musculoskeletal diseases, and cancer.
In addition to these diseases, sitting for a long time can also increase the risk of obesity. People who want to lose weight must remember not to sit for a long time. For people who are sedentary for a long time, the amount of exercise is too small. When the body's calorie intake is greater than the calories consumed, the fat in the body will accumulate over time, and the weight will naturally increase."bucket waist" and "elephant legs" will inevitably appear on the body. Long-term sedentary periods cause 70% of the body's gravity to be pressed on the buttocks, and blood does not circulate in the legs. Therefore, sedentary obesity is mostly flat buttocks, too much fat in the thighs, and thick waist.
In addition to making people look bad, obesity caused by sitting for a long time also increases the risk of hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, etc., which is the saying goes,"the longer the belt, the shorter the life."
To be healthy and bid farewell to sedentary obesity, sedentary groups should reduce their sedentary time, especially avoid sitting for more than 90 minutes.
90 minutes for the
is exactly the time for a movie, which means that every time you watch a movie at home, move around a few times, especially not to watch one movie and then turn on another. When you watch TV, you can watch TV while exercising.
When you go to work, it is best to sit for no more than 30 minutes at a time. You can go to the water more often, increase the number of times you go to the toilet, and create opportunities for yourself to move around.
Usually, if you drive for more than an hour, you will find a rest stop to rest for a while.
Meals at noon are the best time to exercise. Try not to order takeout, eat out more, increase the opportunity to move around, and if conditions permit, you can also take a walk after meals.
