想坐多久坐多久——这也是一种训练

Sitting all day long can shave years off your life—at least that’s what we’ve been told.

经常听别人说，整天坐着的话会缩短寿命。

Now, researchers from the University of Exeter and University College London are coming to sitting’s defense

而现在，来自埃克塞特大学和伦敦大学学院的研究人员正在就这一说法进行辩驳

they say we’ve got it backwards.

他们认为这种观点是错误的。

According to Fusion.com, the researchers argue in a new study that sitting is not the problem--lack of exercise is.

据Fusion网站报道，研究人员在一份新的报告中声明：久坐是没有危害的，关键是缺乏锻炼。

Richard Pulsford is from the University of Exeter and is lead author of the study.

理查德来自埃克塞特大学，他是这项研究的主要作者。

He said in a press release that the findings suggest reducing sitting time might not be quite as important for mortality risk as previously publicized.

在一次新闻演讲稿中他称：就像之前所发布的，研究发现减少坐着的时间可能对降低死亡风险来说没有多大的影响。

Rather, "encouraging people to be more active should still be a public health priority."

相反，“鼓励人们积极地锻炼身体才是公共健康事业的重中之重。”
