Substituting just a few minutes of daily sitting with moderate exercise can greatly benefit heart health. It also showed the benefit of light activity, standing, and sleeping compared with sitting. This finding, part of research involving more than 15,000 individuals, underscores the significant health impact of even small changes in daily physical activity. Each participant used a wearable device on their thigh to measure their activity throughout the 24-hour day and had their heart health measured. Replacing sitting with as little as a few minutes of moderate exercise a day tangibly improves heart health.
