There has been some research indicating more subtle metabolic advantages of standing vs sitting, is that captured in this calculator?

- Mizza 15y agoOn the whole, simply measuring calories is a pretty poor metric for health. I'd say the health benefits are probably much greater and broader than the 300 calories this thing is telling me I'd save.
- shantanubala 15y agoI'd go one step further and say that the calories are actually one of the most superficial aspects of standing instead of sitting (which really shows how much American perception of health and wellness have gone wrong). I'd say the most important aspects are the impact on organs, muscles, bones, tendons, and joints. Not to mention improved circulation, etc.
