IF YOU’RE SITTING RIGHT NOW, AND YOU’RE IN PAIN, YOU WILL WANT TO READ THIS!
You don’t have to be part of the 80% of people who struggle with chronic back pain. The average person will spend approximately 1/3 of their lifetime sitting down without realizing how disastrous this can be to their health.
But what if I told you that sitting itself is not the problem?
IF SITTING ISN’T THE PROBLEM, THEN WHAT IS?
Regardless of whether you are standing or sitting, research shows that poor posture is associated with a range of issues:
CHRONIC PAIN
FATIGUE
INJURY
DEPRESSION
POOR VISION
POOR DIGESTION
POOR CIRCULATION
DYSFUNCTIONAL BREATHING
SHORTENED LIFE EXPECTANCY
Good posture, on the other hand, is linked to:
REDUCED PAIN
BETTER
CIRCULATION
IMPROVED DIGESTION + BREATHING
INCREASED LIFE EXPECTANCY
FURTHERMORE, RESEARCH INDICATES THAT 85% TO 92% OF BACK INJURIES RESULT FROM STRESSFUL POSTURES
You might be thinking, “I need a standing desk.” However, research offers a different perspective. According to The American Journal of Epidemiology, occupations predominantly involving standing were associated with a 2-fold risk of heart disease compared to predominantly sitting occupations. Additionally, many people choose to stand to burn extra calories throughout the day, but the difference is negligible. One study reveals that you only burn an extra 9 calories per hour when standing compared to sitting. That’s equivalent to a single piece of celery.
IF STANDING ISN’T THE ANSWER, THEN WHAT IS?
Let me explain why I can confidently say this. I am the CEO and inventor of the Anthros chair. I am part of a team of wheelchair seating specialists at Anthros with a combined 70+ years of experience in sitting. Our expertise isn’t just theoretical; it’s rooted in the most complex sitters on the planet – wheelchair users, for whom seating equipment can be a life or death decision. We have honed our knowledge through extensive experience, evidence-based research, and scientific rigor to protect and support the human body in the most effective ways possible. We understand the intricacies of the human body’s needs during prolonged sitting, and we are dedicated to alleviating the suffering of millions who endure the challenges of sitting all day. That’s why we set out to make a difference! Before I tell you about the solution, I want to address the one thing you’ve always been told makes a good ergonomic chair: a lumbar support!
This is simply NOT TRUE!
LET’S LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE
Angle of the Pelvis
Research has shown that the angle of the pelvis determines the position of the spine. It’s not lumbar support! In fact, supporting the body at the lumbar spine is like supporting a tall building at the 5th floor! Our body collapses with lumbar support, and we end up in a slouched posture.
Slouched Posture = Increase in Disc Pressure
This slouched posture increases disc pressure and can lead to conditions such as disc herniation, disc degeneration, spondylolisthesis, just to name a few! Our ligaments get strained, and we develop muscle imbalances that follow us throughout the day. No wonder you’re in pain!!!
