28% of the world’s adult population is physically inactive. The current trend still does not show improvement. As a result, homo sapiens becomes more and more inactive. “A sedentary person is simply someone who spends a lot of time sitting. It is possible to be sporty and sedentary if you run regularly, but at the same time you spend the rest of your time sitting on a chair or on your sofa ”, explains Sophie Yoldjoglou, wellness coach at WW.

The risks of a sedentary lifestyle

Studies show that sitting for long periods of time can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and after certain types of cancer.
