STAND UP FOR YOUR HEALTHThe Risks of Prolonged Sitting Research suggests that it is not enough to concern ourselves only with how much physical activity we get – we should also be thinking about how inactive we are the rest of the day. Dr. Strachan discusses the state of the research on the health risks of sedentary behaviour, providing practical ways that older adults can positively impact their health by reducing and breaking up sedentary time.
