“…A key implication of our findings, where passive standing has an intensity that is likely below the light intensity threshold, is that the cardiometabolic [7,8,16] and potential musculoskeletal benefits [17] from standing are likely not attributable to a meaningful increase in energy expenditure. Rather, these benefits derived from intermittent standing are likely multi-factorial and may be due to an attenuation of the effects of prolonged sitting, including negative cardiovascular and musculoskeletal effects [18][19][20][21] along with increased stress and forces on joints (e.g., lower back, neck) [22,23].…”

Public health guidelines for physical activity now include recommendations to break up prolonged sitting with light-intensity activities. Concurrently, interventions to increase standing have emerged, especially within the workplace in the form of sit–stand or standing workstations. Moreover, in short-duration studies, breaking up prolonged sitting with standing has been associated improved cardiometabolic outcomes. Publicly available estimates of the intensity of standing range from 1.5 to 2.3 metabolic equivalents (METs), neatly classifying standing as a light-intensity activity (> 1.5 to < 3.0 METs). Further delineation between ‘active’ and ‘passive’ standing has been proposed, with corresponding METs of > 2.0 METs and ≤ 2.0 METs, respectively. However, this study reviews data suggesting that some standing (e.g., while performing deskwork) is substantially below the minimum light intensity activity threshold of 1.5 METs. These data bring into question whether standing should be universally classified as a light-intensity behavior. The objectives of this study are to (i) highlight discrepancies in classifying standing behavior in the human movement spectrum continuum, and (ii) to propose a realignment of the ‘active’ vs. ‘passive’ standing threshold to match the light intensity threshold to help provide a clearer research framework and subsequent public health messaging for the expected health benefits from standing.

“…Much motion and physical loads during operation (e.g., handling with loads) are limited by national legislation, EU standards, ergonomic principles, and the principles of designing workplaces in the framework of Industrial Engineering. However, currently, things that affect manufacturing system performance efficiency are being changed [5,6].…”

The current development trend of the operational activities indicates an increase in occupations which last for a few generations and whose primary position is the activity in the sitting position. This trend is directly connected with the technological progress and development of the society within Industry 4.0. However, the workplaces intended for sitting occupations that are designed according to the current standards are unsuitable from several perspectives. The long-term sitting activities at most actual workplaces cause an accumulation of the static load. For this reason, the article deals with dynamizing the activities in the sitting position. The presented research is based on utilizing the knowledge of the sitting posture dynamics and on the information acquired through diagnostics based on the Raster Stereography as an innovative method based on modelling a natural human spin. The article brings the first research results, which points out the fact that probably not all types of dynamic sitting that are nowadays preferred are suitable for long-term working.
