SO
We need to define the opportunity – so we can get it r ight.

DEFINING THE OPPORTUNITY

THE FACT THAT MOVED US

THE FACT THAT MOVED US
Inactivity kills more than obesity.
10
THE FACT THAT MOVED US
"The greatest risk of an early death was in those classed inactive, and that was consistent in normal weight, overweight and obese people," Researcher, Prof Ulf Ekelund
REFRAMING THE TASK
We’re not about fitness.
We’re about activity.

THE TREND THAT’S KILLING US

THE TREND THAT’S KILLING US
15
THE EFFECTS ARE WIDE RANGING
Studies have l inked excessive sitting with
•overweight and obesity•type 2 diabetes•some types of cancer•premature death
Prolonged sitting is thought to slow the metabolism, which affects the body's abil ity to regulate blood sugar, blood pressure and break down body fat.
16
THE NUMBERS ARE CHILLING
A study of 800,000 people concluded
112% increase in risk of diabetes147% increase in cardiovascular events90% increase in death caused by cardiovascular events49% increase in death from any cause
17
THE COST?
In 2009/10 inactivity was attributed a cost of £940m
NOT EVEN EXERCISE CAN SAVE US
2 hours of sitting cancels out 20 minutes of exercise.
So 2 working days of 8 hours cancels an entire government recommended weeks worth of activity – 150 minutes.
19
BASICALLY
Sitting is the new smoking
AND IT’S ONLY GETTING WORSE
Since the 1950s the amount of sedentary jobs has increased 83%
4 out of 5 in the UK work in an office
44% of adults never do any moderate exercise.
21
IT’S NOT A NEW PROBLEM
We’ve known since the 50’s that bus drivers have double the rate of heart attacks as bus conductors.
There’s no shortage of information on the internet or press about how bad sitting is for us.
So how do we change this self-destructive behaviour?
THE PROBLEM
Sitting is a social norm.
“Sitt ing is so incredibly prevalent that we don’t even question how much we’re doing it. And because everyone else is doing it, it doesn’t even occur to us that it’s not OK.” – Nilofer Merchant at TED 2013

OUR TASK
Make people rethink sitting – and make them stand up
