This Laidback European Country Has the Fittest People on Earth

So, the sporting goods company, Reebok conducted a study to see which cities were up and moving, and the answers might surprise you. The study used five metrics to determine each city’s ranking including the cost of a monthly gym membership, the number of people walking and cycling to work, the level of insufficient physical activity country-wide and the obesity rate country-wide, and other additional environmental metrics to determine the most actives cities (air quality and public green spaces).

The number one city was the capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam. The average gym membership price is 41.87 euros ( about $50) with 17.4 percent of the population using a membership. But over 45 percent of workers in the city cycle to work, and 13 percent of the city is made up of green spaces in which to exercise and relax outside. The obesity rate in Amsterdam is just over 20 percent.

Copenhagen, Denmark, placed second with an obesity rate of just under 20 percent. The cost of a gym membership rivals Amsterdams at 38.38 euros (about $45) with a little under 19 percent showing up for workouts. 25 percent of the city is public space which is double that of Amsterdam, and 40 percent of cyclers make their way to work.

Rounding out the top three is Helsinki, Finland. Only 14 percent of people cycle to work in Finland, but the percentage of green spaces reaches 40 percent. The average cost of a gym membership is 40.71 euros ($48) and about 17 percent of the population takes advantage of their plentifulness.
