The Lewisham world record holder who visited the most gyms in one day in one city

Leo Robertson, 34, has "always liked" the Guinness Book of World Records and has finally achieved his dream of breaking a record. Gym buff Leo decided to centre his record around his love for the gym - which he says helps with managing his asthma. With a strict criteria, Leo needed to complete 10 bicep curls with a 5kg weight in each gym before he could move on to the next.

Raising £900 for Asthma + Lung UK, Leo started at 7:18am and completed his record attempt in 13hrs 49 minutes - beating the previous record of 50. After submitting all his evidence to GWR, Leo was "ecstatic" to find out he had the new record, earlier this month.
