Would you be able for this?
The folks over at Virgin Active commissioned a survey to find out how much exercise you should be able for, according to your age.
They found that when you’re in your 20s you should be able to run 5k in 30 minutes, perform 20 burpees in a row and hold a full plank on both sides for a minute each.
The timings and difficulty decrease once you’re in your 30s and go down every decade.
