But obviously, you can't stilt Erlang's legs, although it's really a little comfortable, but it doesn't take long for the legs to start congested, and it's very uncomfortable anyway, so you can't help but put your legs down and stay honestly.

1.Sedentary lifestyles are harmful

First of all, don't think that sitting all the time is resting, standing for a long time or exercising for a long time can sit for a while is very happy, but sedentary for a long time can be a lot of harm.

Many people have had such an experience, sometimes for a task, working for hours in a row, and finally when I got up, I found, eh, why am I a little disobedient to this leg? In fact, this is because after sitting for a long time, the blood flow slows down, and a large amount of venous blood stasis accumulates in the calf, resulting in swelling and numbness of the calf.

2.Mental work is energy-intensive

In the past, we used to think that manual labor was more tiring, and it was understandable that it was hard not to see workers sweating like they were drenching. However, whether you are tired or not depends not only on this superficial phenomenon, but also on the actual energy consumption. People who work in an office are sitting most of the time, but their brains are constantly working.

The brain, the energy consumer of the human body, consumes up to 20%-25% of the energy consumed by the whole body even in a state of inactivity and thinking, and the energy consumed is even greater if it is in a working state.

According to a foreign study, some top chess players can consume as many as 6,000 calories in a day during the Duan Rise Skating Competition, which is equivalent to the energy consumed by athletes running 3 marathons.

Even if the energy consumption is high, you can replenish it by eating something, but because of the particularity of mental work, the pain continues.

3.Neglected emotional labor.

Emotions are not only a kind of labor, but they are also the main reason for people to feel tired.

Emotional labor is the result of the research of the American sociologist Hochschild. Originally, it referred to occupations that required the facial expressions of their employees, such as: flight attendants were required to pay "passionate emotional labor", teachers were required to pay "caring emotional labor", and funeral practitioners were required to pay "sad emotional labor".

Sedentary lifestyles are indeed associated with a variety of health problems, some of which are common, including:

1.Obesity: Sitting for long periods of time can cause energy metabolism to slow down, leading to fat accumulation, which ultimately leads to obesity.

2.Diabetes: Prolonged sitting can lead to lower insulin signaling, making it difficult for the body to use blood sugar properly, increasing the risk of diabetes.

3.Cardiovascular disease: Sitting for a long time can cause blood vessels to constrict, increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and stroke.

4.Musculoskeletal pain: Sitting for long periods of time can lead to excessive pressure on the spine, which can lead to musculoskeletal symptoms such as low back pain and cervical spine discomfort.

5.Digestive system problems: Sitting for a long time will cause gastrointestinal peristalsis to slow down, increase the risk of constipation and digestive problems.

Therefore, sitting for a long time has a certain impact on health, and it is recommended to rest and exercise at the right time and strengthen physical exercise to promote good health.

Sitting for a long time will cause fat accumulation in the abdomen, leading to obesity, and sitting for a long time can also cause hemorrhoids, which is not conducive to digestion, may make indigestion, and cause gastrointestinal diseases.
