Sedentary Lifestyle Impact

Meaning

Sedentary lifestyle impact refers to the adverse, systemic physiological consequences resulting from prolonged periods of low energy expenditure and physical inactivity. This negative impact extends significantly beyond simple musculoskeletal deconditioning to include profound metabolic and endocrine disruption, such as severely reduced insulin sensitivity, increased visceral fat accumulation, and dysregulation of sex hormone binding globulin. Clinically, it is recognized as a primary, modifiable risk factor for chronic diseases and accelerated biological aging.
