Turning a blind eye to the very real health risks associated with leading a sedentary WFH lifestyle is foolish.

With our TeeBeu Sit-Stand Workstation and wellbeing in our WFH lives at its core, we’re on a mission to stimulate ‘movement for your health’ as we cannot ignore the health risks associated with sedentary working and sitting down for prolonged periods. 

So I was chuffed to discover this recent podcast Stand Up (released on 31 Oct 2021) from the highly respected science presenter, journalist and executive producer Michael Mosley on sedentary lifestyles, prolonged sitting time and the importance of standing and movement for our health.  

Michael confirms that we’re sitting more than ever before, and advises that our sedentary lives are having a big impact on our long term health. In this episode, Michael stands up to the allure of the couch and reveals the science behind how just standing up - without even doing any exercise - can burn more calories and lower blood sugar levels. With Professor of Applied Exercise Science at University Centre Shrewsbury Prof John Buckley, Michael explores how the experience of astronauts in space proves how important the force of gravity is on our bodies - and how standing up can help keep our bones and muscles strong.

Please listen to it, standing up ideally!
