Men in London, Leeds and Manchester reckon they are the healthiest in the UK, according to research.
A study of 2,000 males found those in the capital are most likely to consider themselves ‘healthy’ – smoking the fewest cigarettes, drinking the most water and most likely to have a gym membership.
While 82 per cent of those in Leeds have never used a vape.
Those residing in Manchester also make sure to drink four glasses of water each day, eat three potions of fruit and veg and four in 10 reckon they can do 10 sit ups in a row without getting tired.
While 48 per cent of Mancuican males cook from scratch and 64 per cent make sure to get plenty of fresh air.
And they are most likely to be able to swim 200 metres non stop.
On the flipside, guys living in Sheffield rated themselves as the unhealthiest and they also hydrate themselves the least often.
And Newcastle residents are most likely to smoke cigarettes ‘multiple’ times a day.
The research also revealed the top signs of good health, according to the men polled, including having lots of energy, low body fat and being able to exercise without getting too tired.
A spokesperson for Vitabiotics Wellman, which counts male supermodel David Gandy amongst its brand ambassadors, commissioned the survey, said: “Health is different for everybody.
“But it’s been interesting to see the differences from men around the nation, when it comes to different aspects of health.
“There are lots of different things that can impact your physical wellbeing, it’s not just about how often you go to the gym.”
The study found just 17 per cent of men in Sheffield have a gym membership.
And while 28 per cent of those in Bristol admitted they have ‘never’ been for a run, more than in any other city, only 11 per cent of Londoners said the same.
