Studies have shown that even a 1-minute workout has health benefits.
Now this is not to replace a regular workout schedule, but to be used in conjunction with it.
Taking just 10-15 minutes out of your lunch hour to do a mini workout where you are raising your heart rate will increase your metabolism, and its metabolic effects last long after your workout is over.
You will find it gives you increase energy, clarity and are able to focus more on your afternoon tasks. No more 3pm slump, and even better no need for that afternoon sugar filled snack.
Companies like Chatelaine recognize the benefits of these mini workout and have incorporated them into their daily work schedule.
I love her workouts. She had created a series of workouts that are short, but action packed. When doing her 20 minute workouts you are using your whole body; incorporating abs, legs and arms in one move speeds up the workout process so you can do 20 minutes and get a total workout.
Another thing I like is that most of her workout require little to no equipment, using only your body weight for resistance. Her fierce formulated workouts add strength and ab moves to dynamic cardio for increased fat loss in a shorter time frame. Now who wouldn't like that?
Now that's Creative!
