Things That Happen When You Sit Too Much With Dr. Turner Osler

In this episode we speak with Dr. Turner Osler about what really happens when we sit too much. Dr. Osler is a retired academic trauma surgeon, turned research epidemiologist. He is the CEO and Founder of QOR360, a company specializing in active seating products for homes, offices, and schools, designed to help alleviate problems caused by sitting. Dr. Osler and his team are passionate to help educate a new generation on active sitting, and support an aging population with back pain. Dr. Osler has published over 300 peer-reviewed medical papers and book chapters. As a physician who’s suffered from a tyranny of conventional chairs for most of his life, Dr. Osler’s quest for a healthier way to sit led him to develop the Redrocker, a new geometric solid, the Eccentric Bicylinder. This shape is central to QOR360’s ergonomic, healthy, and active seating products.
