Tips to Avoid the Dangers of Sitting What if we told you that something you do everyday could be a contributing factor to poor health? According to the Mayo Clinic, sitting for long periods of time whether you’re at work, school, in the car, or lounging on the couch has been compared to doing as much damage as smoking would. While it may seem impossible to not sit in these situations, there are some things you can do to offset the amount of sitting that you’re doing in order to avoid possible health risks. Tune in to today’s episode of The MaxLiving Podcast to learn tips to avoid the dangers of sitting. Contrary to popular belief, sitting is actually more harmful on your spine than standing.
