As it raises the risk of getting back and neck discs, turtle neck syndrome, arthritis, blood circulation disorders, as well as slower insulin-related cell activity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, hyperlipidemia. Hence, the disease is also called &#8216;the new smoking&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p> Even though the name may still sound unfamiliar,&#8217;gluteal amnesia&#8217;, which has become a hot topic after getting asked about as a question in a popular quiz showdown program, is a disease that often occurs to modern people who stay seated in chairs for long periods of time. It got such a name as people&rsquo;s hip forget how to exert strength after their hip muscle and thigh muscle becomes weaker.<\/p>\n<p> In Korea, public debate about sitting disease has been withheld until now, but other developed countries have already started producing active chairs using a gym ball as a response to sitting disease. Among the 2nd Gen Active Chairs, there are American, Japanese, and German products that have realized gym balls on chairs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/uploads\/beb7554ab9aac8ee0a1acac2d58189bc.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"left\">The &#8216;Swing Sit&#8217;, combines 50 years of technology and production know-how from the parent company, Ko-Woo Co., Ltd., which is the subcontractor of a global automobile manufacturer. By doing so, it surpasses the previous technology of the 2nd Gen Active Chairs by implementing the left and right swing movement to maintain horizontal balance on a chair. In addition, it has signed a supply contract with Styleergonomics, Australia&#8217;s largest chair company, as a new third-generation active chair that improves the technical limitations of dynamic seating chairs with the world&#8217;s only IoT technology.<\/p>\n<p> The exterior is made the same as that of the existing fixed chair, but through the light and effective swing action, it &bull; corrects the bent posture using tension &bull; reduces the burden on the neck, waist, and spine through constant weight distribution &bull; stimulates gastrointestinal activity to aid digestion &bull; stimulates the brain to enhance focus. Hence, the company explains that it is suitable for office workers, students, freelancers who sit in a chair for a long time to concentrate on work and study.<\/p>\n<p> An official of the company said, &ldquo;In particular, through clinical trials, it has been proven that one swing on the &#8216;SwingSit&#8217; Active Chair has the effect of walking one step. It helps in stretching and strengthening the core muscles of the lower body.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p> Moreover, the official further emphasized, &ldquo;SwingSit&#8217;s &#8216;1020&#8217; campaign means that if you sit for 20 minutes, go on swing active for 10 minutes to prevent sitting disease. We are planning a campaign to prevent sitting disease such as by providing a &#8216;swing coin&#8217; for the future swing counts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/gobizkorea.com_62514.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">SEKANG ASC<\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Hong Gun Taek<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=sk-asc-exports-smart-active-chair-swingsit-to-the-us\" rel=\"nofollow\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> +82 10 2289 8274<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> Korea<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gobizkorea.com\/user\/goods\/frontGoodsDetail.do?goods_no=GS2020070193130&#038;ctgryCode=S1200200230000&#038;upperCode=M1200200000000&#038;goodsNms=SWINGSIT_swing-type-active-chair&#038;skwanSn=&#038;speclKwanId=SPCCD0000624\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.gobizkorea.com\/user\/goods\/frontGoodsDetail.do?goods_no=GS2020070193130&#038;ctgryCode=S1200200230000&#038;upperCode=M1200200000000&#038;goodsNms=SWINGSIT_swing-type-active-chair&#038;skwanSn=&#038;speclKwanId=SPCCD0000624<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object type=\"text\/html\" data=\"https:\/\/www.gobizkorea.com\/user\/goods\/frontGoodsDetail.do?goods_no=GS2020070193130&#038;ctgryCode=S1200200230000&#038;upperCode=M1200200000000&#038;goodsNms=SWINGSIT_swing-type-active-chair&#038;skwanSn=&#038;speclKwanId=SPCCD0000624\" style=\"width:900px; height:400px;\"><\/object><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=sk-asc-exports-smart-active-chair-swingsit-to-the-us\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video Link: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XXOhVCaarbw Sekang ASC&#8217;s active chair &#8216;Swingsit&reg;&#8217; reached the target amount of 102% on the global crowdfunding platform Kickstarter and began exporting to the US. &#8216;SwingSit&#8217; is a chair that can swing the hip support from side to side &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/sk-asc-exports-smart-active-chair-swingsit-to-the-us_506982.html\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[437,422,403,404,416],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-506982","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Lifestyle","category-Retail","category-UK","category-US","category-World"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=506982"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/506982\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=506982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=506982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=506982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
