Then there are home workstation set-ups. Terrence G. McGee, a physical therapist in the Johns Hopkins Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, wrote in anfor Johns Hopkins Medicine that there are many reasons why peoples' work-from-home setups might be causing them grief.
"Furthermore, the drawbacks of working from home is that due to the loss of the commute, some people became even more sedentary—no longer engaging in that walk to and from the station, bus or work. Those with children had to balance work with childcare, which involves a lot of lifting, for many more hours a day than they were used to.
"But it's a double-edged sword. While people became more aware and engaged in health, they also suddenly had the time to address old injuries and long-term niggles. But for those new to exercise, that was also linked to an increase in unsupervised exercise injuries."
