Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• I sit in a chair all day and have zero spare time for mobility work, but I’ve noticed when I do get down on the floor my body feels better
• I get so locked into deep work that I look up and realize I haven’t stood once in three or four hours, and I want something that breaks up the sitting itself every half hour or so
• I sink into my chair after breakfast and don’t move again for hours, and I’m realizing my one morning workout probably doesn’t undo eight unbroken hours of sitting
• I work out in the morning but then I’m glued to my chair for nine straight hours, and I’m realizing that one workout might not undo all that sitting
• I work out in the morning and then sit glued to my desk for eight straight hours, and I’ve started to wonder whether that one workout really cancels out a whole day of not moving at all

10. Break up prolonged sitting every 30–60 minutes with brief movement
