We all know sitting at a desk all day isn’t the greatest for staying healthy and keeping fit. But, new studies show just how much sitting for hours each day hurts our bodies. Just 4 hours a day can put you at risk for developing chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. Since most of us spend far more than 4 hours a day working, and probably sitting down, this study makes taking a few more walks over to the water cooler pretty appealing.
We also have an very interesting article that discusses the merits of HIIT training in short bursts vs longer duration exercise, a couple of nutrition articles that deal with healthy oils and new findings on the Mediterranean diet, and a cool image-based article that contrasts what 200 calories of a wide variety of foods looks like.
Please Note: The articles and videos listed below are informative, popular, newsworthy, or a combination of all three. Just because we have included an article within FitLinks does not necessarily mean that BuiltLean supports, or agrees with its contents or views.
