No Physical Activity
Physical activities such as daily exercises, running, jogging, or simply being mobile help the bone tissues maintain toughness. When bones and muscles are regularly exerted, it can strengthen tissues and reduce the risks of fractures. It also makes a person agile, which helps avoid tripping or falling and improves bodily reflexes. In contrast, a sedentary or inactive lifestyle leads to muscle stiffening and softening of bone tissues, which highly results in weakening the body’s musculoskeletal system.
Moreover, a lack of physical activity makes the bones weak and increases the possibility of developing bone-related diseases in the long run. When bones are not constantly put to work, it loses density and become prone to fractures and other severe medical conditions.
This is typical for people who work in offices and are desk-bound all day. Long sitting and stationary work periods may contribute to lower bone density, resulting in stiffening and bone pain. Additionally, stiffening can lead to sore joints—which, in turn, affects the bones with swelling. As a result, even a slight movement can be excruciating.
