Sitting at a computer for a long time can cause “gluteal amnesia”
This syndrome develops when sitting for more than 2-3 hours in a row. This weakens the muscles in your lower back, which can lead to lower back and knee problems, including torn ligaments, arthritis, and a constant dull ache.
To avoid these problems, doctors recommend standing up every 30-50 minutes and doing exercises such as lightly tapping the buttocks, squats and hip circles.
