The average work week in the US is 46 hours a week. That is up from 50 years ago, but down from 50 hours a week in the 20s.
That "No vacation nation" article is talking about government mandated paid vacation days. That doesn't mean that businesses don't voluntarily give paid vacations in the US or that Japanese employees take all their paid vacations.
Even if you are not in a bicycle friendly part of the country that doesn't mean you can't walk, jog, join a gym, do push-ups, or any number of things. 20 minutes a day can do wonders to a body.
