Inactivity is described by the Department of Health as a “silent killer”.1 Evidence is emerging that sedentary behaviour, such as sitting watching TV or at a computer, using the car for short journeys or lying down for long periods, is bad for your health. This type of behaviour is thought to increase the risk of developing chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes, as well as weight gain and obesity.1
