| dc.description.abstract | So… sitting is bad for you
On average, office workers spend 5-6hr sitting down (Cowan-Harris, 2014)
Recreational sitting (>4hr/day) is related to raised mortality regardless of physical activity participation (Stamatakis, Hamer, & Dunstan, 2011)
Standing desks: a popular way of reducing sedentary behaviour and have been investigated in the context of:
Energy expenditure (Benden, Blake et al. 2011, Gilson, Suppini et al. 2012, Reiff, Marlatt et al. 2012)
Acceptability (Grunseit, Chau et al., 2013)
Metabolic markers (Buckley, Mellor et al., 2014)
