It is something that we witness day to day. Whether it's a kid who sits on the couch watching cartoons and eating chocolate or a someone who turns work in half completed, laziness is laziness. But illness is not laziness. There comes a point when your body is fatigued, where your muscle becomes weak and your stamina runs out. For most people, this happens during a work out.

New evidence today suggest that the more hours that you sit, the greater likelihood of dying an earlier death regardless of how much you exercise, or how lean you are ( Masters, 2010). The fact is that millions of Americans think they are being healthy by working out at the gym on a daily basis. These people do not realize that the exercise they are doing in the gym is not able to counteract the effects of the “desk job.” These same people think they are living an active life by working out on almost a daily basis.
