“160 Seconds a Day Keep the Doctor Away!”—Burn More Fat and Improve Your Health without Breaking a Sweat with a Simple Swing Protocol | StrongFirst
There is an old Italian proverb that reads "One apple a day keeps the doctor away." I took the liberty to substitute the apple with 160 seconds. Let me tell you why I did so.

Fabio Zonin had a nice article about how to prevent the negative effects from too much sitting. The article recommends 3 reps each side of 1 h swing, 4 sets, every hour when you are sitting for a longer period of time.
Since I have had a bit of trouble with my forearms I am just curious if the same benefits would be created if you used snatch, push press or clean and jerk ?
I am thinking that at least push, press, clean and jerk would create less strain on the forearms while perhaps giving many of the same benefits as swings.
