Modern humans spend a lot of time sitting—more time than ever before. Too much time, if you ask medical experts, who say it’s not great for our health.

Fittingly, we’ve come up with a lot of clever solutions to the sitting problem: yoga, foam rollers, Pilates, even timers that remind us to get up and walk around every once in a while. But the best solution might also be the simplest: What if we all regularly practiced just…standing up?

Guy goes viral for revolutionary idea of standing still for 20 minutes

Jules Horn is a former model. But while he had the “perfect” body for fashion designers and magazine covers, he discovered that living in that body felt far from perfect. So he gave it all up and became an expert in breathwork, somatic exercises, and fascia—the connective tissue that supports every muscle, bone, nerve, and organ in the body.

Horn recently shared the results of an experiment he conducted. For 90 days straight, he carved out about 20 minutes each day to do one thing: just stand there.

At least, that’s what it looks like. In reality, the practice is far more complex than it seems.

Every day the last 90 days, and I don’t plan........
