This article is NOT about sudden death after sitting for long periods of time. This article is about how sitting for more then 6 hours of time will contribute to your ultimate demise.
The argument here is that one big exercise session in a day is not going to keep you healthy. What will keep you healthy is exercise and activity throughout the day. Lets take, for instance, a regular workplace. Instead of simply getting up away from your desk and making camp in the break-room, why not go outside for a brisk 5 minute walk, do pushups or jumping jacks? At lunch time go for a short jog of a half-mile to a mile? In a regular workplace, you get 3 opportunities during the day for exercising. While sitting at your desk you can also do twists and other exercises.
Sitting all day long for long periods of time is simply unhealthy.
