Did you know that sitting at a computer or TV, then have a sedentary lifestyle comparable in mortality to cancer diseases? This is the fourth (and increasingly claiming to be the third) cause of premature death human, not counting, of course, infectious diseases.

But to fight this ailment is quite simple, enough, as established by physicians at the University of Colorado and University Medical School Utah, every hour to break away from the TV or computer and change sitting or lying position on mobile. And only two or three minutes. In these minutes you can run, jump, do articular gymnastics (its shortened version or some separate exercises), and so on.

According to scientists, a person must be physically active at least half an hour a day. These two or three minutes per hour are quite provide this minimum, and thus save you from premature aging – naturally, in this case death postponed. Numerous experiments on four thousand volunteers helped researchers establish that if a person in these two or three minutes is just worth it, then there is no positive effect going on. But if he is actively moving, let’s say, cleans up in the room, does exercises, goes out to stretch into the garden, then the risk of death decreases by almost half.

But ideally, for these daily thirty minutes of activity, scientists recommend adding another two or three hours a week to intense physical activity, let’s say, we should go hiking in nature, ride a bike, do jogging and much more – what do you need more to your liking. Remember, scientists say, every hour spent in armchair or chair, takes away from a person almost as much of his of life. But every hour of moderate physical activity, especially on fresh air, adds to life expectancy twice as much. This is understandable, since a person is created for an active life, and not for lying on the couch in front of the TV.

By the way, office workers, programmers, webmasters, designers and other people sitting in front of the monitor, today it’s so simple install a small program on the computer, say Napominalka, which every hour will remind you – it’s time to do physical charging. Is it really that hard? ..
