Reduced Disease Risk
Spending 11+ hours per day sitting increases your risk of disease by as much as 147%.
To create MOVI we connected with a range of expert health professionals and elite athletes who believe that regular movement is essential for good health.
“We are designed to be active. Humans developed to walk and move on two limbs, standing upright; many don’t realise just how unnatural sitting is.”

Change it up.

often, take a seat when you’re tired,
check your posture, and get up and
move around when you can.
