Interval Fitness Training

February 28, 2010 · Filed Under Health Care 

So now the fitness experts are saying that a 15 or 20 minute intense workout, done about once a week is all you really need to get in shape and stay in shape.

They say that 4 sets of 4 minute hard workouts with a three minute rest is better than the half hour every day or every other day. The Olympic athletes came up with this as a training program and it works for them.

Does anyone else but me see a problem with this kind of advice? Of course it works well for them. They are in excellent shape to begin with!

The rest of us however, especially those who are obese and in terrible shape may need a little more convincing.

In fact those of us who are out of shape and fat could drop dead from starting such a routine just to save some time in our week.

You should always consult your doctor before you change your diet or exercise routine, especially to this extent.
