Like the others said, calling it the “stand” ring can be a misnomer and you are meant to actually walk around for a minute or two.
The study in question: https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M17-0212
The researchers here call for more frequent moving than every 50 minutes.
I agree. When you have a standing desk setup for work or other daily activities, calling it the “stand” ring can be a misnomer.
