What does sitting do??
1. It turns off most of the abdominal muscles.
2. It over works the back muscles (when posture is controlled otherwise it just stresses the spine).
3. It over stretches the spinal ligaments.
4. It stresses the back portion of the spinal discs.
5. It shortens the very popular Psoas muscle.
6. It shortens the hamstring muscles.
7. It shortens the calf muscles.
8. It reduces blood circulation by restricting the vessels in the groin area.
9. It slows down lymph flow by restricting lymph nodes and vessels in the groin area.
10. It stresses the neck by making it more difficult to keep our neck in neutral.
