“Stillness” is the enemy of biology. Our bodies were designed for movement, not prolonged, uninterrupted sitting. Yet, one of the primary solutions to the problem of people spending so much time being sedentary has been to make the sitting experience as artificial as possible, enabling longer and longer sitting durations.

As much as we'd like to think you spend the better part of your day standing up, let's not pretend. You're probably sitting down as you read this, and that could be a big problem, especially if you play golf. Prolonged, chronic sitting is linked to so many health issues, we could spend the next few paragraphs listing them like it's a pharmaceutical-company commercial.

Hours of intense gaming can lead to discomfort, poor posture, and lower back pain. But what if we told you that there's a revolutionary solution to these problems that not only provides relief but also strengthens your core while sitting?
