"... rising only to eat or visit the bathroom. The next morning, the volunteers returned to the lab for a high-fat breakfast of melted ice cream and half and half, while the scientists monitored their bodies’ metabolic response during the next six hours. Then, on a separate day, the volunteers sat again, except for a few seconds each hour, when they sprinted."
From "The 4-Second Workout/Intense bursts of exercise throughout the day may have surprising metabolic benefits" (NYT).
1. That was mean, melting the ice cream.
2. So... I guess you can give up your long wholesome outings running and hiking and just sit slumping over your computer all day, every day if — every time you need to go get some food or pee — you just run like hell.
3. Clear the pathways to the kitchen and bathroom so you don't stumble and fall, undoing the health benefits.

1) You should always choose to do your moving outside when you can. There is no way to measure it, but you can feel it. The outdoor air, the sun, the environment are all a net positive for your body and much more invigorating mentally than the inside of your home office, your real office, or the treadmill in your bedroom.
2) Never eat ice cream before a strong workout unless of course, you drizzle hot fudge over it.
3) The 4-second burst is what my wife calls our 'together' time.
