Brits on toilet longer than they exercise

-

Britons spend twice as long on the toilet every week as they do exercising, a poll suggests.

Adults clock up an average of three hours and nine minutes on their loos every week – but spend just 90 minutes being active.

In fact, more than a quarter (26 per cent) of people exercise for 30 minutes or less each week, the survey showed. And overall, almost two-thirds (64 per cent) of Britons sit down for at least six hours a day. The poll of 2,000 adults was for the not-for-profit body Ukactive.
