Anyone mind filling out a short interview?

I have to interview three people whose country of origin is outside the United States. So instead of asking random people around town, I thought I would ask here seeing as we have such a diverse group of people.

Keep in mind this is for school so if your not going to answer serious, don't bother filling out the form.

Code:
Name of interviewee
Country of origin (outside USA)
Are gyms/fitness centers common in your native country?
What is the name of a gym from your country?
What are some of the programs, equipment and facilities, found in the gyms there?
Is fitness important to most people in your native country?
Is there anything else you want to tell me about gyms in your country?



Thanks :)

I'll get you an A***** don't you worry.

Name: Mr J Mason

Country of origin: United Kingdom

Are gyms/fitness centers common in your native country? Certainly are in my area of the country.

What is the name of a gym from your country? Fitness first. They have over 100 gyms in the country.

What are some of the programs, equipment and facilities, found in the gyms there? Programs I don't know about. You can get personal trainers and such. Facilities you have steam rooms, some have pools, bars the usual stuff though it really depends on where you go. As for equipment well standard stuff..treadmills, weights, rowing machines, excersize bikes...everything you tend to expect in a gym.

Is fitness important to most people in your native country? Is fitness important to 60million odd people? Some of them I'm sure. Although people keep ***** about the UK having a weight problem.

Is there anything else you want to tell me about gyms in your country? Yes they cost to much.

You are guarenteed top marks or I'll have words with your teacher myself. AND THEN ILL COME TO HIS HOUSE AND SORT HIM OUT. Seriously though that's a fairly rubbish questionare why is s/he setting that? Unless he wants you to seek out people in your country illegally that came from the **** end of no where I can't imagine your going to get many different answers. Or did you come up with these questions? If it was you try harder or I'll fail you.

Clan Name: Solum
Name of interviewee: Sir T. Peters

Country of origin (outside USA): Australia

Are gyms/fitness centers common in your native country?: Yes

What is the name of a gym from your country?: Fitness First

What are some of the programs, equipment and facilities, found in the gyms there?: Cardiovascular/Muscular training and programs, Endurance training and programs. Health Canteens, In-house trainers, Personal trainers for hire.

Is fitness important to most people in your native country? Absolutely (disregarding the fact that Australia is one of the most obese countries in the world :oops: )

Is there anything else you want to tell me about gyms in your country? Fitness plays a very large part in todays society, and it is becoming more and more socially unacceptable to be overweight or underweight. I personally go to the gym 5 days a week, finding it uplifting; it actually gets me in a better state of mind.
