Exercise is possible in London

This is what happens kids when you let that gym membership expire. The unfortunate chap on the left who wasn’t an extra in 300, is Chris Leppard, a 25 year old from Hastings, Sussex on the coast to the south of London. His current fighting weight is 40st(560lbs) and because of his size he’s unable to leave the room that he’s in and is blaming Hastings council for his situation because they haven’t given him somewhere to live with bigger doors so he can go for a ‘jog’.

They’re probably scared about what damage he’ll do to the footpaths as much as anything, if that body starts running they’ll be a lot of force coming down. If you’re coming to London there’s no need to let your fitness regime totally slide, one thing London has got is plenty of parks and with British Summer Time kicking in last week the evenings are staying lighter a lot longer and there’s lots of time for a run.

There are also numerous large chains of gyms and health clubs, some do short term memberships. If you don’t want to get tied to a long term contract try looking at sites like the Gumtree where people advertise that they’re trying to transfer or sell memberships to gyms, you might find a good short term deal there. Whatever you do get some exercise before you get too fat to get through the door.
