Wendy Christien - The negative effects of physical inactivity

--:--

Many of us work at a desk or spend a lot of time in a car all day, then we go
home at the end of the day and sit down for dinner, then sit on the couch.
Added to this most people travel to and from work and to any leisure activities
by car, bus, taxi, or train. More and more people are inactive or have sedentary
lifestyles. This is a lifestyle with little to no exercise and a lot of sitting or lying
down.
