First of all, you should know that sitting for too long increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Sitting for long periods of time can cause strain on the leg veins and damage to the musculoskeletal system.
In addition, a study found that subjects who alternated between sitting and standing activities had more energy and were more alert.
In addition, weight gain and pain in the back, neck and shoulders can be a consequence. Researchers therefore recommend that you alternate between sitting and standing during your work to avoid these consequences.
