But how much time off from your exercise routine does it take before you actually start to sabotage your results?<\/p>\n<p>According to a new study out of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpool.ac.uk\/ageing-and-chronic-disease\/news\/articles\/just-2-weeks-of-inactivity-could-lead-to-changes-that-increase-risk-of-developing-disease\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University of Liverpool<\/a>, just a brief hiatus from your regular physical activity may have major health consequences\u2014including weight gain and increased risk for chronic diseases (<em>gulp<\/em>), for otherwise healthy people.<\/p>\n<p>How brief a hiatus are we talking? Just two weeks, according to researchers at the university\u2019s Center for Aging and Chronic Disease.<\/p>\n<p>The study\u2019s participants included 28 young, healthy, active adults, who typically averaged about 10,000 steps per day, had healthy-range body mass indexes (BMIs), and had no health complications. Throughout the two weeks of the study, they maintained their normal diets, but limited their daily step count to just 1,500 per day.<\/p>\n<p>The results were frightening: \u201cThee participants generally gained fat mass and gained it centrally [around their midsections], which we know is a risk factor for type two diabetes,\u201d says Kelly Bowden-Davies, a lead researcher on the project. \u201cTheir cholesterol and triglycerides increased, and their measures of fitness decreased.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/04\/13\/belly-fat-facts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>The Truth About Belly Fat<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The changes were small, but measurable\u2014indicating a risk of potential future health concerns had that sedentary period continued.<\/p>\n<p>The findings highlight the consequences of a growing trend in sedentary behavior around the world, Bowden-Davies says. (A major red flag for all of us who sit hunched over computer screens at our desks all day or spend a lot of time with Netflix.)<\/p>\n<p>The good news: When the study participants returned to their normal activity levels, the negative changes that resulted from their couch time reversed\u2014in the same amount of time. So, luckily those two weeks off don\u2019t mean permanent damage to your health and fitness\u2014which is a major sigh of relief, and evidence that we do have some ability to improve our health with an active lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we\u2019re trying to say is that any sort of physical activity is going to be beneficial to your health,\u201d says Bowden-Davies. \u201cHow many steps per day you take or how much time you spend sitting is really, really important for your health.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [rr-products] does not match the conditions -->\n<p>According to Bowden-Davies, small changes to your daily routine\u2014like getting off the bus or subway a few stops early and walking whenever possible\u2014can offer health benefits (especially when it comes to your cardiovascular system and body weight) long-term.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind, too, that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.who.int\/mediacentre\/factsheets\/fs385\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">World Health Organization recommends<\/a> adults between ages 18 and 64 do 30 minutes of \u201cmoderate-intensity\u201d physical activity five days per week, or 150 total minutes per week.
