 Ever tried to sleep while sitting in a chair? Unless it's one of those extremely lazy recliners, it's a tough feat. At least for me, it's never restful.
As it turns out, we probably shouldn't be doing it anyway, because we're already sitting too much as it is.
According to some new research: reducing the amount of time you sitting you sit to less than three hours would increase the life expectancy by two years. They also said reducing the time spent watching TV to less than 2 hours daily would give us an extra 1.4 years. It’s a big lifestyle change. Because on average, adults spend, between 4.5 and five hours a day sitting down.
That's why i have bleacher butt today. Ouch.
