The German carmaker, based in Wolfsburg, also reported a 9% fall in deliveries during the first nine months of the year.

Growth in Europe and South America was not enough to offset that decline.

Researchers say muscle and liver cells can retain signs of past exercise even after someone stops training.

In studies using mice, animals that exercised, took a break and trained again grew larger muscles than mice with no training history.

Their muscle cells also matched energy production to demand more effectively, and this ability remained during inactivity.

The researchers say liver cells also store exercise memories and release enzymes that help supply fuel to working muscles.
