According to a recent study, the first thing Brits want to do when they get in from work is collapse in front of the sofa – instead of under the sheets with their partner.
The study of 2,700 adults by Weight Watchers discovered over half of Brits (51%) struggle to muster the energy for a romp with their other half – or any other type of exercise – as the thing they crave the most post-work is sleep.
After a long day at work, the majority of Brits are not only too knackered to have sex – they also can’t be bothered to socialise or chat to friends over the telephone, choosing texting over talking.
A third of people admit to turning down a night out with friends because the effort of getting ready was simply too much.
Nearly half of overworked and undersexed Brits cite ‘tiredness’ as the main reason for their sedentary, 'coach potato' behaviour once they get home.
“According to our research, more than 14 million adults are leading more inactive lifestyles than is healthy,” explains Zoe Hellman from Weight Watchers.
“The lack of motivation is putting people at risk of health issues later in life, including obesity and type 2 diabetes.”
