Why are people complaining? It's not as if the levels are difficult. If an overweight 40 somat like me stops at level 10 simply coz he's playing football later that evening then it can't be very demanding to make 8.3 or whatever. If you pass the test then I'm sure most Stn Cdr's won't give a toss if you've done 2 hrs or whatever a week!
If the wife wants time with you then make sure it's horizontal gymnastics and don't be the lazy one!
