Exercise is bad for your home

The latest fitness craze to sweep Britain has its down side. A recent survey claims women exercising on the Nintendo Wii are causing millions of pounds worth of damage to their homes.

The bungling fitness fiends have contributed to an estimated annual living room repair bill of £19million.

Flower pots, television sets and even pets have been sent flying by the high kicks and hula hoop motions of increasingly vigorous home exercise routines.

Almost 20 per cent of women polled admitted having accidents after getting carried away in the living room with fitness routines such as those on the Nintendo Wii Fit.

Many of the 1000 women polled admitted they had caused an average of £7 worth of damage to their homes in the last year with over-enthusiastic work-outs.

Mind how you go now!
