According to a new study, a new study shows that the use of a vertical desk in the office is likely to prolong your time at home on a chair.
The scientific community is almost unanimous in the view that sedentary sedentary health. In scientific data to stimulate, people increasingly favored sitting dual-purpose desk. Recruited 40 healthy but sedentary office staff of University, let them continue 14 days wearing two activity monitor from Loughborough University in England and the Victoria University of Wellington, Australian researchers. The posture change one monitor with tracking people, so he has much time in standing and sitting. Another monitor is responsible for tracking the pace and sports activities of the volunteers.
Then the researchers to all volunteers provides sitting dual-purpose desk, and asked them to use new desk for a week, six weeks and three months after wearing the monitor. Every time the volunteers need to continuously monitor wear for a week. Researchers found that most of the staff were sitting at the office and at home about 10 hours a day before getting a new desk, and standing there for less than 5 hours. In a week after the use of the new office, the volunteers in the work and family in the total stand time reached nearly 6.5 hours, while they sit down to less than 8.5 hours of total time. Six weeks later, they stood about 6 hours a day, three months later, their daily stand time dropped to about 5.5 hours, while the time to sit back to a little more than 9 hours.
Interestingly, the researchers found that while volunteers were less than sitting in the office at the beginning of the experiment, they returned home and spent more time in the chair. The participants were less than the time when they were working to compensate for the decrease in the amount of time they were sitting. People from the "Oriental Morning Post"
