Orthopedics and Traumatology Specialist Prof. Dr. Arel Gereli described the interest in sports as a demand during a television program he attended, sharing the discomforts caused by a sedentary lifestyle and the ergonomic rules to be considered while exercising.

Prof. Dr. Arel Gereli appeared on the program "Haftanın Konuğu" (Guest of the Week) hosted by Berke Kosova on D-Smart screens.
