Keeping fit without becoming broke
Reports have revealed that not only is Britain amongst the laziest nations in the world, but that a lack of exercise can be as deadly on a person’s health as smoking.
While plenty of people manage a great deal of exercise everyday, for others it’s not so easy – especially for those who work long hours and find it difficult to make the time to get their blood pumping.
However, getting fitter doesn’t necessarily have to be difficult and there are ways to squeeze some more exercise into your daily routine.
For example, a thirty-minute power walk could be made in a lunch hour, and you’ll even be left with half an hour to eat lunch and read a few pages of your favourite book.
Or, if you live within walking distance of your work, you could give your car a break and travel by foot. You’ll even save some money on petrol too!
There are plenty of ways of getting some more exercise into your day, and absolutely no need to break the bank by joining the gym!

The Lamborghini Reventon
A lot of us would probably be quite pleased to own a Lamborghini – any Lamborghini at all – but what about the most expensive one ever manufactured?
There are only 20 Lamborghini Reventon’s in the whole world, and Surrey-based company SuperVettura has just recently received Britain’s only model.
Interested?
If you direct your eyes to the photo on the right, you will see a truly desirable car. It can go from 0 to 62 miles an hour in 3.4 seconds, its top speed is more than 211mph, it has a G-force meter on the dashboard, and its design was inspired by the F22-Raptor fighter jet.
The only downside is that it costs £849,000.
Oh – that’s a pity.
Third-hand Nissan Micra it is then. Still, we can dream…
