Abstract

Modern lifestyles are increasingly characterized by prolonged sitting, unhealthy dietary habits, and insufficient physical activity, making physical inactivity one of the leading modifiable risk factors for poor health. This behavioral shift contributes to overweight and obesity, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, and other chronic non-communicable diseases. Alongside regular physical activity, maintaining adequate mobility represents an essential yet often overlooked component of long-term health. Efficient human movement depends largely on the available range of motion within synovial joints, and insufficient physical activity may impair muscle function, restrict joint mobility, and ultimately compromise overall health status.
