Does being on your feet all day even if your not walking make a difference in your activity level?
Let’s say I’m standing up all day at work pretty much in one spot and I’m not “walking” is that “sedentary/not very active” or “lightly active”? Does simply “being on your feet” change your activity level? Really want to get my activity level right so I know how many calories I can or can’t afford.
