The Hazards of the Couch

Quote:
Many of us sit in front of a computer for eight hours a day, and then go home and head for the couch to surf the Web or watch television, exchanging one seat and screen for another. Even if we try to squeeze in an hour at the gym, is it enough to counteract all that motionless sitting?

A mounting body of evidence suggests not.


Too bad the paper had to use stock art, rather than send out a photographer to find someone, anyone, sitting on a a couch.
