I think his point is that regardless of the measures you're taking, your health will likely suffer.

I'd hazard sitting a lot in a 40 hour job and moving around the rest may be safer.

My point is that unless we come up with some concrete definition of what "work" is, it's rather pointless to talk about its effects. A weight lifter might refer to 'work' as exercising. A truck driver might refer to 'work' as driving a truck. Those two forms of 'work' have a much different affect on your health.
I would be surprised if weight lifters train for 80 hours a week though
