It turns out that for most of us, sport, heavy housework and even walking are things we'd rather not be bothered with — or have no time for. The annual health survey and obesity figures published by the fantastic NHS Information centre detail exactly how much time adults spend doing the most common forms of exercise, and the answer for most of us is no time at all. Curiously, we all think we do some physical activity, but from these statistics it's hard to see what. The data is split by sex, but not age.
