The average person SITS 7.7 hours a day, with some people
sitting up to 15 hours!
By comparison, the average person only gets 6.5 hours of sleep each
night.
No wonder we're seeing a shift away from health in the average
person. After all, 71% of the US is overweight.
These statistics tell us a LOT.
We sit too much. We sleep and move too little. And you already know
we eat more than we ever have in the history of our species - most
of that coming from low quality, processed foods.
But not you - right?! ;)
Back to this sitting thing...
The CDC has called sitting the new smoking.
Since most of us work from a seated position, commute to work
sitting in cars, buses, trains, and planes, and then spend much of
our down time sitting in front of TV's, hunched over phones...
This podcast is something you need to hear.
I'm joined by Aaron Alexander of Align Therapy to discuss how
our posture impacts - no, it
DICTATES -
our physiology.
Tune in to find out how you can optimize your sitting time and
overcome the muscular, skeletal, and emotional crippling that comes
from sitting in submissive, depressive, "douchey" positions for 1/3 of your life (8/24 hours
a day).
Hack your posture while sitting to optimize your physiology,
feelings, mood, decisions and hormonal health.
