I had the pleasure to do a Zoom with Stefan today. What a bright individual who truly cares. We need to focus on reducing our sedentary time rather than just increasing our active time. We are designed as humans to do low-intensity work at eight hours a day. Bravo, Stefan.

Dr. Zavalin you are brilliant! I love your Alice story. Sadly there are more Alice's out there and I really hope they find this video to help them sit less and stand! This is a simple but genius idea. I am very glad to have seen your video.

I was getting much fatigue since the Covid has hit and pushed me in work from home environment, keeping me in a chair for most of my day. I’ve read Dr. Zavalin’s recent book and watched this TED talk and everything makes sense. It took a little effort at first to stay out of the chair. But now it’s becoming a second nature - take meetings while standing and swinging dumbbells…
