And the world's laziest countries are ...
---findings of a study by Stanford University researchers using step-counters installed in most smartphones to track the walking activity of about 700,000 people in 46 countries around the world.---
This is interesting because according to this Stanford study the people who walk the least are southeast Asians. Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia are 3 of the bottom 4 of who walks the most. I find this hard to believe. I see people walking everywhere in those countries.
The article is novel to look over but the study is either saying that how much you walk must not be very relative to how fit people are or the study is flawed. I am going to go with the study is flawed.
