I suppose these are only the figures for people registered at a gym etc. I’m from Pretoria, but every time when I visit Cape Town it feels as if everyone is going to the beach to jog or surf or get some form of exercise after work. The figures for these same provinces for Obesity will be very interesting….and maybe prove my point.
Thanks for these updates, I’m looking forward to receiving them every day.
