Do you think that people just all of a sudden decided that standing might kind of be a cool thing for their circulation or whatever? If it's a "hip" thing, it's probably because it's inspired by stuff like this:

Which states that sitting a lot is bad, even if you are an individual who exercises. And this does not imply that people want to replace standing with exercising, which is a false dichotomy proposed in the article.
