Sitting Disease - Ways to Prevent

1.   20-8-2 Rule
2.   Use a standing desk
3.   Use a bike desk.
4.   Set alarms to remind you to take a break/move.

The "20-8-2 rule" suggests a work pattern of 20 minutes of sitting, 8 minutes of standing, and 2 minutes of movement every
30 minutes to promote better posture, reduce the negative effects of prolonged sitting, and increase energy expenditure.

Use a standing desk

Standing desks offer numerous benefits, including improved posture, increased energy and productivity, reduced risk of
heart disease and diabetes, and potentially lower back pain.

Use a Desk Bike

Desk bikes, or under-desk exercise bikes, are designed for low-impact exercise while seated, promoting movement
throughout the day and aiding in weight management, improved cardiovascular health, and enhanced overall well-being.

Medical Experts say we need to take break every 30 - 45 mins and stand/walk atleast for 2-3 mins . :) . And also let we warn you the
ill effects cannot be dealt by 1 hr physical excercise. Its not a good idea , we should not sit more than 20 mins at a stretch .
