Physiology of sedentary behavior

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2023
Sedentary behaviors (SB) are characterized by low energy expenditure while in a sitting or reclining posture. Evidence relevant to understanding the physiology of SB can be derived from studies employing several experimental models: bed rest, immobilization, reduced step count, and reducing/interrupting prolonged SB.

Breaks in Sedentary Time [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes Care, 2008
OBJECTIVE—Total sedentary (absence of whole-body movement) time is associated with obesity, abnormal glucose metabolism, and the metabolic syndrome. In addition to the effects of total sedentary time, the manner in which it is accumulated may also be important. We examined the association of breaks in objectively measured sedentary time with biological

Sedentary behaviour in Australian university students: The contribution of study‐related sedentary behaviour to total sedentary behaviour

open access: yesHealth Promotion Journal of Australia, 2023
AbstractIssue AddressedSeated activities are attributed to increased sedentary behaviour (SB) and adverse health effects, but little is currently known about university students' SB, particularly study‐related SB. This study describes the sociodemographic variations of domain‐specific SB in regional Australian university students and the contribution ...
