•Participants will be overweight/obese, based on having a BMI between 25 kg/m2 and 40 kg/m2, previous diagnosis of type 2 diabetes greater than 3 months, and be english speaking.

•Conditions for exclusion are: diagnosis of type 2 diabetes for less than 3 months; unable to sit for prolonged periods due to musculoskeletal pain; pregnancy; employment in a non-sedentary occupation; currently watching less than 3 hours of television per day; regularly engaged in moderate-intensity exercise for greater than or equal to 150 min/week for greater than 3 months; use of glucose/lipid lowering/antidepressant medications; pre-menopausal or menopausal women; and major illness/physical problems.
•These exclusion criteria are necessary to ensure our participants fall within the demographic in which the risk of cardiovascular and diabetic complications due to sedentary behaviour are elevated. This is the target group for future interventions in whom breaks from daily prolonged sitting are likely to be of most benefit.
