Could your job literally be killing you? I am sure many of us have wanted to tell our bosses that very thing. Surprisingly, there may be evidence that supports this thought, if you sit while you work.
The digital and information lifestyle
Most people today spend 6+ hours sitting. Much of that time sitting is for work purposes. Since I began blogging earlier this year, the time I spend sitting in front of a computer has dramatically increased.
A couple things that are pretty important to me are my fitness and living an active lifestyle. Believing that the additional time I sit at my computer may have negative effects on my health and fitness, I decided to do some research.
Below is an interesting infographic that I got from Medical Billing & Coding. Take a look.
