Is technology making us physically lazy?

Yes technology is making us incredibly lazy. Take online shopping for example. Yes shopping in person isn't exactly excercise, but walking to the shops and around multiple shops is good for you. It's getting your blood pumping. The option technology gives, is to slump on the sofa, moving just one finger to click through various sites selecting which trousers or shirt might look best. It's not just clothes shopping either; technology replaces the need for physical play time in a kids life. Give any child a tablet with Angry Birds and they'll snatch it off you straight away. If you compare the amount of time a child spends outside playing hide and seek or catch now, to the amount of time a child did say 15 years ago - I'm confident the stats would be staggering. Technology is taking over every aspect of our lives, and when you can do everything digitally, even throwing a basketball into a net, it becomes a lot easier to sit still.
