Is it not quite easy trying to figure out what can go wrong about the posture I took in not too recent a time. I got fond of researching and digging out information and almost did not realize that I have been building a lifestyle. The challenge is not the lifestyle but not realizing what you are feeding to grow fat on a daily basis is a more advanced virus I can admit. You see, character doesn't just happen in a whisker but built ignorantly and the amazing thing also is the fact that it seems harmless at the beginning.
I could talk about things but not forget to mention that, It's very possible to sit behind the system and not realize that minutes are turning to an hour and the hour digits are counting aimlessly. not because I'm perfect but a sudden reality hit me and its been like I just woke up from a deep sleep.

I mean, the virtual world is so amazing that our generational predecessors may envy us from their world for being so favoured to roam the world from wherever you are seated or even on the go, mostly when letters had to travel for months to reach another continent and the wait for replies a nightmare.
We need to give technology a standing ovation and a round of applause for the groundbreaking impact it has on us else people will not get to know what cryptocurrency is all about - dont mind me!
However, everything seems to have two sides to their coin and the one that I'm seemingly sure it concerns you is that aspect of sitting for long hours in one place. Admit you are no geek who can spend days in the room just to crank out a software (programmers et al), but how many hours are you pinned to a seat or lurk in a position and not letting go your legs or stretch your legs and unburden your back?

I'm not waiting for an answer though but let me quickly say that they call it "binge-watching." I don't know if you knew that tag already.
However, apart from being blunt to mention that it has these four health problems (cancer, diabetes,heart disease and obesity), the whole truth is that you die a lot earlier for sure. You don't have to take my words for it but I believe that the World Health Organization is a voice that should ring a loud bell of authority as they reported it to be the fourth leading risk factor for death in the world.
Everything may be causing cancer around the world these days ; things like X-Rays, Mobile Phones, Microwaves and even Cat scans but sitting?

When sitting for too long accounted for a quarter of breast cancer, over twenty percent of diabetes and more than 30 percent of heart disease issues reported by WHO (World Health Organization), thats not something to fidget about.
I am concerned about steemians and every other person in the world and ultimately myself about a subject that's not anywhere near the school curriculum, I presume.
No matter how much work you have, lets make a balance. Sitting for an hour or two wont kill but stretching beyond the normal is cancerous to our health. When health is wealth to you and I, we wont just read a blog post and waive it away but rather sit back and restructure our ideals to accommodate the wealth of HEALTH!
