More than 80% fail to get one hour of exercise per day, and 70% spend more than two hours a day watching an electronic screen. There are fears this could lead to a potential future health crisis of heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

While organised sport is important, a big issue is the lack of "incidental exercise", that is, the work out we get by walking to and from destinations, and reducing sitting time.
