The latter half of the article set all kinds of alarm bells ringing, starting with the pseudoscientific Air squats are one of the best ways to release enzymes that breakdown the production of fat in your body. So what's the evidence for that? Following the link, the page you land at does not mention enzymes at all. Moreover, it's by Mercola, who has his own page on quackwatch (http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/mercola.html http://www.quackwatch.org/11Ind/mercola.html)
So I looked at some of the other links, and point 1 about raising your legs cites...the Daily Mail. Not a reliable source, and particularly pilloried for its medical coverage, see eg https://kill-or-cure.herokuapp.com/ https://kill-or-cure.herokuapp.com/
The article is fine as an anecdote about the author's failed attempts to use a standing desk, but it's not persuasive evidence.
