7 NUMBER OF MINUTES YOU NEED TO WORKOUT TO SEE BENEFITS
When you're just starting to exercise, you don't need to slog through a long session. Just seven minutes can improve your heart and lung health, insulin function, and muscular strength and endurance. Pick 14 bodyweight exercises, some involving resistance (pushups, squats, planks), others involving cardio (jumping jacks, stepups). Do 20 seconds of one, rest for 10 seconds, and move to the next. We're such believers in the seven-minute workout that we created a whole book of them (Men's Health 7-Minute Workouts for Fat Burn). Caveat: "A more seasoned trainee will need a higher threshold to see increases in fitness," says clinical exercise physiologist Dean Somerset, C.E.P., owner of Somerset Fitness in Edmonton.
