Introduction[edit | edit source]
Sedentary behaviour refers to “any waking behavior characterized by an energy expenditure ≤1.5 metabolic equivalents (METs), while in a sitting, reclining or lying posture”. Many adults spend roughly 9–10 h/day engaging in sedentary behaviours. Given this level of exposure, an understanding of its relationship with health outcomes is vital for the general public.[1]
A sedentary lifestyle has many adverse health effects, for example elevated all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, cancer risk, risks for metabolic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, musculoskeletal diseases (eg knee pain and osteoporosis) and mental health problems. The negative health impacts escalate with increases in the total daily sedentary times. For this reason, it is important to reduce the sedentary time as much as possible.[2]
Sedentary Behaviour vs Physical Inactivity[edit | edit source]
Sedentary behaviours are considered conceptually distinct from physical inactivity, with the latter referring to performing insufficient amounts of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) to meet current physical activity recommendations.[3]
WHO Guidelines[edit | edit source]
The WHO 2020 guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour give new advice on sedentary behaviour and its interrelationships with physical activity, providing a broader, mutually reinforcing set of behavioural targets to help improve population health,aiming to limit sedentary behaviour and increase physical activity among those who need it most. These new sedentary behaviour guidelines should elicit more targeted research in this area and be a stimulus for more system-wide policies, programs, and initiatives to help improve global health.[3]
