Sedentary Behavior and Heart Health

We now know there is a link between sedentary behavior (e.g., sitting) and heart disease. However, we do not yet fully understand if sedentary behavior performed in different settings and situations (e.g., sitting alone watching television vs sitting with friends at a bar) differentially impacts heart disease risk. This is what this study aims to find out.
