High sitters who incorporated just 20 to 40 minutes of moderate intensity exercise into their day, drastically reduced their risk of premature death.
In that study, 10 participants were asked to sit as much as possible and move as little as possible for four days. They were then given a thickshake of icecream and light cream to see how it affected their metabolism .
The researchers concluded that that being sedentary for long periods of time makes us “resistant to the usual metabolic improvements after acute exercise". Stamatakis says that while the study is “useful” in showing the short-term effects of sitting day after day on our blood sugars and fats, it “does not reflect real life” nor show the impact of regular exercise on long-term health.
