We’re averaging 9.3 hours per day of sitting,
versus 7.7 hours of sleeping.
And because we’re constantly in front of our computers,
I suspect Internet marketers sit even more than the average person.
Fellow marketers, this is not good, and here’s why:
After one hour of sitting, your enzyme production declines by
as much as 90%. And what do those enzymes do? Burn fat.
So by sitting, you are ensuring that you hold on to
every bit of fat you might already have.
Extended sitting also slows the metabolism,
lowers good cholesterol, increases the likelihood of having
heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and breast or colon cancer.
The death rate of obesity is 10 times that of tobacco and rising.
And in a recent study it was found that
for each additional hour of television a person sits and
watches each day, their risk of dying rises by 11%.
Bottom line? Sitting is LETHAL. Does this sound crazy?
Do your own research and you’ll find you’re not laughing.
So what’s the solution? Obviously it’s to get more exercise.
But for many people exercise is either boring, or
it takes too much time away from other activities.
Which is why I’d like to suggest the following idea:
Multi-task exercising, at least in the beginning.
Catch up on your reading while walking on the treadmill or using the exercise bike.
Have walking meetings instead of sit-down meetings.
Formulate your new marketing ideas while hiking.
Watch television while you do yoga.
Distracted exercise is far better than no exercise at all.
If you do these things just 4 times a week
you can make a dramatic difference in your health,
in how you feel, in how you think and in how long you live.
And who knows – the more you exercise,
the more you might find out you really enjoy it.
And then maybe you’ll do it full bore by running, swimming,
climbing mountains, skiing and more.
All of which will make you a better thinker and communicator
– two things that are essential in Internet marketing.
But to begin with, just get off your tush and DO something.
Here’s to your making [[ th@t million ]]
