Epidemiological data on human health doesn’t lend itself to concrete interpretation. For example, the role of time spent sitting or otherwise sedentary in the development of cardiovascular disease remains debated. Some studies suggest that sedentary time contributes to risk independently of level of exercise, others suggest that recommended levels of exercise eliminate any relationship between sedentary time and risk of disease. There remain the questions of the degree to which sedentary behavior is a proxy for other contributions to long-term health such as diet and weight. This is before we even arrive at the question of biological mechanisms and their relative importance.

Insufficient exercise is a known risk …
