Also, it might be harmful to make people believe they can completely offset working 8 hours a day at a desk without breaks by spending 1 hour at the gym. By medical standards you still have a sedentary lifestyle.

"By medical standards you still have a sedentary lifestyle"

Is it? Is 1h of strenuous exercise at a time and sittimg the rest of the day not better than getting up every hour and doing some simple stretches or just walking around? Not trying to be argumentative, I honestly don't know.

If you spent an hour at the gym every work day you would be in phenomenal shape- I absolutely do not agree that this is a harmful idea.
