Why Your Desk Job is Killing You.

Why your desk job is killing you, and if you have one, why you need to work out.

The picture below shows two days of activity.

On the left is a day it was raining, so I didn't walk the dogs or walk on my lunch. I overslept and didn't work out.
On the right is yesterday. I did a 30 minute workout in the morning, walked my dogs before work, went for a walk on my lunch and then took a long walk with the dogs after work. I BARELY made my step and burn goal even with all that exercise. Because when I am at my office, I sit. ALL DAY.

This is exactly why nutrition is crucial and why you have to make an effort. It's also why the weight creeps on over the years.

There are many studies that show the health benefits of getting 10,000 steps a day.  One study found that women who increased their walking to 10,000 a day had lowered blood pressure after 24 weeks. Another found for type-2 diabetics it lowered their blood glucose levels.

If you are pretty sedentary, start with small goals first! Try and take 2-15 minute walks and see how you do. When that feels okay, add more!
