Detailed explanation-1: -Sedentary workers: Those who sit and do work using brain and hands. Moderate workers: Work vigorously for a few hours using many parts of the body like hands, feet and muscles. Ex: postman, mali, maid servant, housewife doing all household work. Heavy workers: Use different parts of body for several hours.

Detailed explanation-2: -Even if you are doing enough physical activity, sitting for more than 7 to 10 hours a day is bad for your health. There is evidence that spending a lot of time being sedentary is linked to an increase in health problems such as: being overweight or obese.

Detailed explanation-3: -According to the 10, 000 Steps Project, people who take fewer than 5, 000 steps a day have a sedentary lifestyle. Increasing your activity level to anywhere between 7, 500 and 10, 000 steps would place you into the moderate, or somewhat active, level.
