I’m a slave to my pedometer. News flash – moving around helps.
Begin wellness lecture:
Found a public transit study from 2010 – people who opted to ditch their vehicle and commute on light rail transit to work were 81% less likely to become obese. Another study looking at the same stats calculated the average public transit taker walks 8.3 minutes more per day than non- transit users.
I offer as evidence my dad. He’s over 80, and kicking. He has a better BMI than I do, and is frequent user of public transportation. Also, eats healthy and reasonable portions.
