We're sitting too much and it's dangerous． Most Americans spend more than seven hours sitting every day， and the more you sit， the weaker your body will be． Fortunately， there are simple changes you can make during the day﹣﹣anywhere， even at the workplace﹣to improve your health．

Park a few blocks away from the office each morning and walk to work．

This allows you to start off your mornings actively and be ready to take on the work． If you take the bus， get off one stop earlier to take some light exercise before 8 a．m．

Get up and move around the office once every 60～90 minutes．
