Sitting Is Killing You!

Yesterday when I wrote about my  Keister I was really half kidding about how I felt that it was taking on the shape of my chair, but come to find out,sitting is a growing problem. Today my husband shared with me an article that he found on one of his stops. When I finished reading it I told him that I had to share this with you all. Click on any of the images below and it will take you to an enlarged version so that you can read the details.

This article makes me want to invest in a Gaiam Balance Ball chair for my office. Although I'll still be sitting I think I'll feel better about what I'm sitting on.
It will definitely make me sit up straight because I tend to slouch. So unattractive!!If that doesn't work I may have to bring in my cruiser and pedal my way to better health. 

How's Your Keister?

Do you sit on your keister all day? Or does your work allow you to be a bit more mobile? Unfortunately my job requires me to sit for the good part of the day. At times I feel as if my keister is taking on the shape of my chair. It’s a very uncomfortable feeling. For mother’s day my husband and my little lovely gifted me with a Huffy Cruiser, well a picture of one. When I saw the 26” on the card I wasn’t quite sure if they were giving me subliminal messages about the size of my bottom, or if that was the height of the bike. Phew, it was the height of the bike! At lunch my husband and I went to Walmart to look at the Cruisers. He thought it would be a good idea if I chose the one I wanted before he ordered it and had to set it up. Here is the one that he had in mind for me, nice right?!

Unfortunately they were out of stock. Wahhhh! Luckily it's been rainy and cold so I don't intend to hop on and cruise any time soon. I can’t wait to order my very own though, I think I’ll  look super fabulous riding down the road, making my stops, and getting some exercise on my new Huffy Cruiser.
