Say no to a sedentary lifestyle, We are designed to move





Regular movement of our bodies is essential to life. Many people however, do not 
move enough to keep healthy!
Sitting always and getting increasingly less active for the most of one’s daily life is called sedentarism – now a major disease of the modern society, leading to about 2 million deaths annually.
Sedentarism itself can’t kill, but leads to life threatening diseases and conditions like: hypertension, cardiac diseases, depression, stress and diabetes.
As the society gets increasingly “automatized”, movements get substantially 
limited over time, diminishing life quality and performance in daily activities.

  • Physical activity is the solution!, MOVE! Beyond regular exercises such as “gyming”, 
  • it is also about simple actions as climbing the stair often, walking instead of driving, 
  • washing your own car, forgetting the remote controls, walking to a canteen, getting off your system and walking up for regular tea breaks, walking up to colleagues e.t.c.
  • Get the small actions on and grow into the regular exercises at the gym, running, jugging, e.t.c. 
  • but  what you can’t do is stay still for too long a time everyday!!


Regular physical activity promotes health and improves the performance of daily 
activities.
Get moving and keep moving regularly and consciously!
