Most jobs involve people sitting for eight hours or more, and add a lazy afternoon on the couch to that and it becomes eleven hours.
According to what was mentioned above, it is advisable to do 30 minutes of exercise a day or 150 minutes a week.

At least 22 minutes a day
Among the most surprising findings of this work was that sitting for more than twelve hours is associated with a risk of death if those affected exercised less than 22 minutes a day.
Balance between activity and mobility
Those responsible for the study highlighted that the most important thing is the balance between physical activity and normal daily activity.
They determined this using markers such as blood sugar and insulin levels, cholesterol and body fat ratio.

The data showed that people who exercise more daily at light to moderate intensity and spend less time sitting lead healthier lives.
On the other hand, researchers from the University of Glasgow (United Kingdom) analyzed data from six different studies that included long-term observations.
In all studies, a monitor was used for each participant to record physical work and thus measure movement and sitting time throughout the day.
More than 30 minutes
Scientists found that, in most cases, doing 30 minutes of exercise a day is not enough to significantly reduce the risk of death in the most passive people, compared to people who do more.
According to the portal cuerpomente.com, “if a person sits for less than seven hours and moves a lot, 30 minutes may be enough, but if they are a little more sedentary they will need more physical activity to compensate.” This means that people who sit for longer periods of time need more movement to achieve the same effect.
How are personal exercise needs calculated?
The researchers provided another formula that can help calculate personal exercise needs. According to experts, “six minutes of light activity corresponds to one minute of physical training.”
Therefore, to achieve the effect of a 30-minute physical training session, the person must perform three hours of smaller daily tasks. However, this is easier to achieve than most and the trick is simply not to sit down.

The latest study titled Effects of curtailed sleep on cardiac stress biomarkers following high-intensity exercise shows a very positive picture in which exercise is beneficial, but at the same time sitting seems to have fewer disadvantages than expected.
In short, the web portal sabervivirtv.com highlighted the importance of moving continuously, whether cleaning, cooking with friends, dancing or interacting with the pet. No matter how active a person is, they should make sure they sleep a minimum of eight hours a day, as the recently published study concluded that “lack of sleep during intensive training can be harmful to the heart in the long term.” .
