sedentary
의미: Characterised by much sitting and little physical activity. Used of lifestyles, occupations, or habits that involve prolonged periods of inactivity.
Sedentary has become one of the most frequently cited words in public health discourse, where it appears alongside warnings about obesity, cardiovascular disease, and musculoskeletal problems. A sedentary lifestyle, a sedentary job, sedentary behaviour — in each case the word implies a lack of physical movement that is detrimental to health. In anthropology and archaeology, it also describes communities that settled in one place rather than living as nomads. The word collocates with 'lifestyle,' 'behaviour,' 'occupation,' and 'work.'
