Why Sitting 8 Hours Undoes Your Workout (And What Science Proves)

from The Wellness Rhythm Show

In this episode, Emma Sullivan and David Park break down the surprisingly robust research showing that even regular exercise can't fully offset the health risks of sitting eight or more hours daily—and explain why your body needs frequent movement signals throughout the day, not just one workout. You'll learn the specific mechanisms behind "sitting disease," discover how small movement breaks (yes, just two minutes) can meaningfully reduce mortality risk, and get practical strategies for interrupting sedentary time that actually fit into a busy, constrained schedule.Follow The Wellness Rhythm Show:  ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessRhythmShow  📖 Newsletter: https://thewellnessrhythmshow.substack.com  Powered by VoxCrea.AI
