Musculoskeletal pain and spinal disorders are among the most common negative effects of a sedentary lifestyle. Prevention is very important as well as attentiveness so that we can live well into old age.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some professionals say that sitting is more harmful than smoking. Based on a study carried out in 2008, over the age of 25 every hour spent watching television shortens our life span with 21.8 minutes while one cigarette a day reduces it by 11 minutes. Those whose job requires hours of sitting are at a higher risk of having musculoskeletal problems than anyone in the industrial sector, construction and metal workers included.<\/p>\n

The harmful effects of too much sitting<\/h2>\n

Life1<\/a>\u2019s personal trainer and spine therapist Menyh\u00e9rt Horv\u00e1th<\/a> finds it incredibly important that we understand how our body is constantly changing, reacting to physical stimulus. Imagine a swimmer or a marathon runner; their body structure is completely different than that of a regular person. Swimmers have wide shoulders, well-developed chest and back muscles, but long-distance runners are characterized by thin, sinewy legs. What they have in common is that their body had to adapt to the physical demands of the sport they do. Inactivity affects us the very same way, because it is also a kind of physical stimulus that has its own side effects: posture problems.<\/p>\n
