So true, many of us are pretty much chained to our desks for most of the day but even then it is important to get up and stretch every hour, walk around a bit.  I'm fortunate enough to have a desk that can adjust to standing position and it sure feels better than sitting all day.   Good reminder, thx for sharing.
