Why You Physically Can't Sit Still (It's Not Your Fault)
Right now, you're sitting down. Your legs are still, your muscles are quiet, and it feels completely normal. It felt normal to nobody for 300,000 years. In this video, you'll discover why the human body was never built for the chair you're sitting in right now. From GPS-tracked hunter-gatherers who walk 4-7 miles a day without ever "exercising," to a 2020 study that found your ancestors' muscles kept working even at rest, to the surprising origin of the chair itself as an ancient symbol of power reserved for pharaohs and kings — this is the real reason your leg won't stop bouncing in that meeting. That restless feeling isn't a flaw in your discipline. It's 300,000 years of muscle memory colliding with a piece of furniture invented to make someone else look powerful. If this made you shift in your seat, you're not imagining it.
