    Seems to be like 1h/day of exercise will allow you 7 more years of life expectancy. This is nowhere worth it ! First, I hope to die around 70, everything that comes after is no way worth it since only slow-down to death (drugs, diapers, loosing your mind, etc...), and give your children bad feelings because they should have to take care of you (or worse, have them taking care of you). Then, I don't want to loose one hour everyday of my young years to do sports, 2 in communting are already enough lost time X| Plus all my friends who are into jogging or tennis or cycling or other nonsense practices are injured half of the time, have sinew in bad shape, etc.. I have never understood why people would inflict that purposely to themselves. :confused:

            Does that include grinding with Crusader in Diablo 3 for hours per day (ok ok, "for hours" sounds so "hardcore" max for one hour before and after work). You know, killing hordes of evil zombies and demons isn't an easy task :D

                  Yeah - and if you think about it, 1 hr/day is about 3 complete years by the time you are seventy. But...if you take out the time you sleep (and the hour a day exercising) it gets more complex. 7 years = 7 * 365.25 * (24 - 8 - 1) = 38,351.25 hours. But...to get that extra time, you have spent 25,267.5 hours in the gym. And it will feel like twice that. Plus there is the time travelling to and from the gym, putting on the silly clothes, taking a shower (again), dressing normally again... You are statistically better off dying earlier and using the time you could have spent exercising enjoying yourself. And you get less exposure to Radio 1 :laugh:
