Post-Covid Lifestyle

Work-from-home? Move more. Stay fit. Avoid sedentary risks

In the Post-COVID era, the prevalence of a sedentary lifestyle has significantly increased due to lasting changes in work, education, and daily routines. With the widespread shift to remote work, online learning, and digital entertainment during the pandemic, many individuals have adopted habits that involve prolonged sitting and minimal physical movement. Even after restrictions have eased, these habits have persisted, leading to a rise in health concerns such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, poor posture, and mental health issues like anxiety and depression. The reduced social interaction and physical activity have also impacted motivation and overall well-being. In response, health professionals emphasize the importance of integrating regular movement into daily life—whether through home workouts, short walks, stretching breaks during screen time, or using ergonomic setups for workspaces. As we adapt to the new normal, it is essential to rebuild active routines and prioritize physical and mental health to combat the long-term effects of a sedentary Post-COVID lifestyle.
