Laziness is life-threatening

Research conducted by Lancet magazine before the London Olympics led to the shocking result that the same number of people die annually from lack of physical activity as from smoking.

A third of adults are not physically active at all, which causes 5 million deaths annually.

Numerous studies have shown that just 20 minutes of walking or cycling a day can prevent ten percent of deaths caused by breast or colon cancer, diabetes or heart attack.

Therefore, it would not be a bad idea to try to get from work on foot or by public transport, at least to begin with.
