Leotards And Vests

Last night on BBC4 a program called 'Leotards and Vests:  The Great British Workout' was aired,

• Bench presses, barbells, rowing machines and electric shock mittens - just some of the tortures revealed by Mark Benton in this funny look at the British way of keeping fit

 If you can get past some of the commentary there is some absolute quality footage to be seen.  There were a whole host of fitness gizmos and workout programs.  You get the idea that there is nothing new under the sun.  Available for  another nine days from today.  A  short clip can be seen here.
