INSIGHT

Challenges of Home Work Sedentary Time

  • Working from home removes the commute but also incidental walking opportunities inherent to an office setting.
  • This can lead to prolonged sitting and its associated negative effects like stiffness and low energy.
ADVICE

Sneak Steps Throughout Day

  • Sneak in small walks during the day such as pacing while on audio calls or standing while clearing your phone inbox.
  • Even 50 to 100 extra steps after sitting can counteract some negative effects of prolonged sitting.
ADVICE

Build Movement into Routines

  • Incorporate movement into your routines like stretching upon waking or pacing in the bathroom brushing teeth.
  • Use natural breaks to take active pauses like walking with kids or the dog, turning breaks into movement opportunities.
