2-Minute Break Every Hour: Combat Sedentary Lifestyle, Boost Heart Health

  • Prolonged sitting, common in office and work-from-home setups, significantly increases the risk of heart disease and circulatory problems.
  • Taking a 2-minute break for moderate exercise every 58 minutes of work can drastically improve blood circulation and reduce muscle tension.
  • This simple rule helps maintain an active body throughout an 8-hour workday, reducing the risk of heart attack.
  • Easy exercises like Tai Chi Hop Stretch, Semi-Push-ups, Sitting Leg Resistance, Reverse Dips, Wall Sit, Leg Swing, Tai Chi Squat Pose, and Jump Ropes can be performed during these breaks.
  • Consult a trainer or refer to instructional videos before starting these exercises to ensure proper form and safety.

Why It Matters: Regular 2-minute exercise breaks hourly can counteract sedentary risks and significantly improve heart health.
