As I've been slowly recovering from back injury/surgery over the past few years, I've been unable to sit for long periods of time. In order to be able to write software at all I've had to construct a laying down desk where I look up through a glass table at the monitor.
I wonder, does this improve my odds wrt to the article? Or rather, is it that 6+ hours of waking inactivity increases the likelihood of premature death? (either sitting or laying down)
- aurora72 16y agoI guess, laying down is by definiton a kind of waking inactivity, too. So it will have those adverse effects similar to the sitting with one exception (obvious): In laying down your back is under much smaller stress.
