A man in Malvern has done his bit for charity by undertaking a 'class marathon' that saw him attend every exercise session at a local gym for a week.<\/p>\n

Antony Lampitt, 27, took part in all the classes on the schedule at PF2 Health Club, burning 15,000 calories and raising more than £300 in the process, reports the Malvern Gazette.<\/p>\n

He did so much exercise during the week in question that he had to over-eat just to help balance his body against the calories he was losing.<\/p>\n

"I asked the instructor and they said no-one had ever done all the classes in a week – they thought I was mad," Mr Lampitt explained.<\/p>\n

He told how he had to stock up on beef, pasta and chicken in order to make up for the calories his body was burning off.<\/p>\n

All of the money raised through his multiple spinning, crossfit, bodypump and tabata classes will now be donated to Help for Heroes.\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801681589-ADNFCR\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
