OmniMount Can Save Your Life
OmniMount’s new ActionMounts are said to promote healthier movement during traditionally sedentary activities such as home computer use and TV viewing. OmniMount, recognized as a 2012 Gold Fit-Friendly Worksite by the American Heart Association for implementing the same standing culture in the office, will introduce a new line of sit-stand mounting products in January.
Global studies show that people sit up to 15 hours throughout the day, with a significant portion occurring during at-home hours. The Ergotron Sitting-Time Calculator is an online tool to help tally hours spent in the car, at work, at the dinner table and in front of the TV.
Just two hours of sitting reduces good cholesterol by 20 percent, reduces blood flow and raises blood sugar, all of which contribute to obesity and the related chronic, life-shortening diseases. Increasing active movement in otherwise sedentary times of the day will increase blood flow, metabolic rates, energy and alertness, important factors in creating a healthy home life balance.
The ActionMount collection consists of desk-mountable computer and laptop mounts, freestanding desks and interactive TV mounts for panels up to 70 pounds, all with full sit-stand height adjustability. Ergotron Constant Force technology enables display movement with only a light touch for easy and regular repositioning.
