Show Notes
Dr Genevieve Healy, from the University of Queensland, discusses the recently-recognised phenomenon of ‘sitting’ being a risk factor for cardiac events and mortality independently of ‘physical activity’.
She reports that a single 30-minute bout of physical activity does not guarantee cardiac health. The practical implications are that there should be more ‘standing meetings’, ‘standing breaks’ and remote controls being kept out of reach while watching TV.
