概要
Let's talk about something that's been quietly destroying our health for decades. We're sitting more than ever before in human history, and our bodies are paying an enormous price. The average American now sits for over thirteen hours per day. Think about that for a moment—thirteen hours of your precious day spent motionless, hunched over desks, slumped in cars, collapsed on couches.
This isn't just about being uncomfortable or a little stiff. The sedentary lifestyle has become a genuine epidemic, linked to a staggering array of health problems: cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, certain cancers, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, weakened bones, and even premature death. Scientists are now calling sitting "the new smoking" because the data is that alarming.
But here's what's fascinating—and hopeful. Our ancestors, those prehistoric humans who lived tens of thousands of years ago, didn't have these problems. They didn't need gym memberships or fitness trackers. They didn't suffer from the chronic diseases that plague us today. Why? Because their entire lifestyle—how they moved, what they ate, how they lived—was fundamentally different from ours. And here's the beautiful part: we can learn from them. We can train like a caveman and reclaim our health.
