We Did Not Evolve to Sit at Desks All Day

While I exercise 5-6 days a week, most of the rest of my week is spent at my desk.  The information age (the age we’re in today) is easily the worst. Within the digital world we can get almost anything we want with very little movement required. All it takes is a quick Google search and a couple of clicks. In under an hour, dinner is on your table without you having to do a lick.


As a quick test, try this now: Standing feet shoulder-width apart, can you reach down and touch your toes without bending your knees? If not, you've lost one of the most basic movement capabilities you should have as a human.

Jonathan Mead has a great post with some great advise and routines to improve ourselves.
