Brief Summary  

This observational, cross-sectional study will be conducted over a period of six months on adult desk-job workers aged 25–55 years, of both genders, who have a minimum desk-job experience of more than one year. Participants included in the study will have total accumulated sitting hours of more than 10 hours per day.

The outcome measures include the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) to assess physical activity levels; BODY-Q to evaluate the dietary patterns and food consumption behaviors of an individual; waist-hip ratio to assess body fat distribution; the 6-Minute Walk Test to assess aerobic capacity, which is the ability of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems to supply oxygen to muscles during sustained physical activity; and Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT) to assess the efficiency of the respiratory system in gas exchange.
