Interesting Fact - Transport

According to a new study published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology journal if you want to lose weight you should take public transport. (Seemingly you can benefit from the ‘incidental’ physical activity involved".  They'll be telling us we should walk to work next! How much do these people get paid?)

Interesting Fact - Fitness

According to research by fitness equipment company Kettler, one in three gym goers in the UK don't even break a sweat during their workout. (A survey of gym goers revealed that only half of them complete a serious fitness routine, while the rest spend their time chatting or ogling the opposite sex: One in 10 are too embarrassed to get sweaty, and a quarter spend more time in the sauna or hot tub than on exercise machines. One in 10 like to 'chill out' by the pool while one in 20 go along to watch football matches on the big screen TVs, and a crafty 13 per cent claim to go off the gym, but in actual fact go somewhere else entirely.)
