Will the belly get bigger if one sits for a long time? The answer is yes, it will! Sitting for long periods is almost an inevitable thing for office workers. Sitting for 6 to 8 hours or even longer every day may affect bones, weight, metabolism and so on. Sitting for long periods of time can cause poor blood circulation in the lower body, leading to the accumulation of abdominal fat and the formation of excess flesh. Sitting for long periods is one of the causes of obesity. A study in the United States found that obese people spend an average of 571 minutes a day sitting in a chair, while non-obese people only do it for 407 minutes. That is to say, overweight people sit for an average of 164 more minutes each day than thin people. What should I do if I have a big belly after sitting for a long time? Regularly shrink your abdomen: In our daily life, whether walking or standing, remember to forcefully contract your abdomen and combine it with abdominal breathing. After a period of time, you will be pleasantly surprised to see that the muscles in your lower abdomen become firm, and you will be able to get rid of your lower abdomen without even realizing it. Keep a proper sitting posture: Female friends who sit in the office for long periods of time must have a proper sitting posture and must not hunch their backs. A proper sitting posture not only makes you look good in terms of appearance, but also keeps your abdomen and buttocks in a tense state, so that your buttock line is less likely to deform. Drink plenty of water: Many women believe that drinking too much water will cause them to have edema and excess fat around the belly, but the truth is quite the opposite. Even though drinking water can cause us to swell, drinking more water can help our bodies excrete and reduce swelling. Stand against the wall for more than 15 minutes after lunch: After lunch, don't rush to sit down or lie down to rest. Stand against the wall for 15 minutes first. When standing, keep your back and waist straight and adopt abdominal breathing. You can also do the tiptoe movement, lift your heels and repeat it many times.

The new normal of office work in the post-pandemic era: The market demand for gas spring height-adjustable desks continues to grow. According to recent market research reports, the global market size of electric height-adjustable desks has exceeded 2.4 billion US dollars in 2023. Among them, gas spring height-adjustable desks have seen particularly significant growth among small and medium-sized enterprises and household users due to their high cost performance, low failure rate and easy maintenance. Analysis of Driving Factors： Improvement of health awareness         Health problems caused by prolonged sitting are receiving increasing attention. The World Health Organization recommends alternating sitting and standing office postures. The gas spring height-adjustable desk, with its intuitive manual adjustment method, helps users easily implement this recommendation.      2. Cost and efficiency optimization         Compared with electric height-adjustable desks, the gas spring model reduces the procurement cost and the difficulty of later maintenance, making it an ideal choice for enterprises to purchase in bulk. It is especially suitable for B2B customers who are budget-sensitive but pursue quality.     3. Policy support         Many countries in Europe and America have included "ergonomic office equipment" in the occupational health assessment standards of enterprises, indirectly promoting the purchasing demand. Procurement suggestion： We suggest that overseas buyers pay close attention to: the smoothness of lifting and lowering, the warranty period of the gas spring (it is recommended to be more than 5 years), the safety treatment of the table board edge (rounded corners for anti-collision), as well as the production capacity and delivery stability of the supplier when making a selection.
