Today’s echo could very well save your life and those you love. Yep you heard me right. What is this nugget of knowledge you need to know? STAND UP!!!! Yes that is right, Standing more will add years to your life and rid you of many diseases associated with the hours we accumulate sitting. Today’s echo is a preview of Kelly Starett’s new Book “Deskbound, sitting is the new smoking”. This short clip highlights what damaging effects sitting has on your body. Those of you who have seen the echo or been in my office for care know the admiration I have for Kelly and his work with the Mobility Project. As one of MWOD’s practicing physicians I know when Kelly talks he speaks bluntly the truth. Kelly and his wife Juliet are donating all the pre-order proceeds of this new book to standupkids.org to help bring stand up desks to kids all over the world. Pre-order today and begin to understand how you can become healthier by standing more.
