754. Serious Endurance Training Makes Sitting Sort of OK
Nobody gets a free pass to sit all day, but new research on how sitting affects your arteries offers some encouraging new.
"We can tentatively suggest that endurance training at a serious competitive level might offer some protection against the negative effects of sitting on your macrovascular function, which would be good news for your long-term health. And we can suggest that it might not protect your microvascular function, which would be bad news for your athletic performance. But both those conclusions are provisional, so until further notice I’d suggest hedging your bets: train hard and try not to sit around all day."
