It's 3 a. m. in the City Gym, and men

and women are bending, stretching, running, and lifting weights. The

City Gym has 5000 members and it never closes. You might think from

this that this is a nation of slim and super-fit people. Certainly the

country has a reputation for sport and healthy outdoor living. But the

truth is rather different, according to one health expert. Gymnasiums

are full of the lycra and leotard brigade - mostly single young people,

he says. In fact, about one in three men is a sedentary slob with a

beer belly. But people certainly know what they should do for a healthy

lifestyle. The government spends about $240 million a year on education

in health and fitness. That's $14 for every man, woman, and child.
