Sitting or standing? Which is best?

Devriez-vous adopter le plus souvent la posture assise ou debout au travail? Si vous êtes perplexe devant les titres apparemment contradictoires au sujet des effets néfastes sur la santé d’une posture assise ou debout prolongée, cette vidéo offre des clarifications. Il se trouve que deux des scientifiques derrière ces titres travaillent à l’Institute for Work & Health (IWH). Nous les plaçons côte à côte devant la caméra pour démêler le message à emporter.

Should you mostly sit or stand at work? If you’re confused by seemingly duelling headlines about the negative health effects of prolonged sitting and prolonged standing, this video offers clarity. It just so happens that two of the scientists behind these headlines work at the Institute for Work & Health (IWH). We put them before the camera, side by side, to sort out the take-away message.
