Those users who have the Apple Watch will be aware of an option (which we can activate and deactivate at our whim) that alerts us every hour to make a move if we are sitting for about an hour without moving. In the Apple Watch it is done from the sensors that it incorporates and allows the user to follow a marked rhythm that for 12 hours makes us be active for at least one minute, in the case of the Healthy Workouts at Work application, we will have the same but while we are working on the Mac.
Healthy Workouts at Work, get up every hour for one minute and reduce eye strain
In addition to the advantages of getting up and moving for at least a minute when we have been sitting in front of our Mac for many hours, we have to take into account that our eyesight also suffers the consequences and this over time can become a problem. With this application that follows the 20-20-20 rule recommended by The National Eye Institute and the Mayo Clinic, we will not solve the problem of spending those hours in front of the Mac, but we will we can avoid greater evils in our body over the years.
This is something scientifically proven and it is that sitting for many hours is not healthy at all. Apple even revealed that the desk tables in the Apple park lacking chairs a few days ago and this is a clear indication for those of us who spend a lot of time in front of a Mac on the desk.
