Sedentary Behavior Impact Calculator
In our modern, tech-driven world, sedentary behavior has become the norm. From long office hours to binge-watching shows, many of us spend most of our day sitting—and it’s silently harming our health. Research shows that prolonged sitting increases the risk of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and even mental health issues.
How Does Sedentary Behavior Affect You?
The more time you spend sitting, the higher your risk of:
✅ Weight gain & obesity – Slower metabolism leads to fat accumulation
✅ Type 2 diabetes – Reduced insulin sensitivity affects blood sugar
✅ Heart disease & stroke – Poor circulation raises blood pressure
✅ Back & joint pain – Weak muscles strain your spine and posture
✅ Anxiety & depression – Less movement = lower endorphin release
