Children in Britain are among the most lazy in the world, a report claims.
The survey found UK children spend an average of 9.4 hours a week playing computer games or watching TV, but less than one hour a day being active.
The report, commissioned by Tesco, surveyed 3,500 young people from 10 countries around the world, including Britain, the US, Australia and India.
Ranking the 10 countries in order of their children's fitness, Britain came in as the seventh fittest nation.
Faring even worse were youngsters from Russia and India. South African children came out as the least healthy overall.
At the other end of the spectrum, Australian children proved to be the most fit.
China came second in the health rankings, and Germany third.
