Ever been to the gym and look over at the girl on the treadmill next to you, just to be discouraged to see she’s been running for the past 45 minutes? Don’t be. Researchers have found that several short bursts of exercise are actually the same if not more effective than slaving in the gym all day.
Working out for three 10 minute doses is actually very beneficial. The downtime allows your muscles to regain the oxygen they lose during a long workout, and therefore after a few burst, your muscles are stronger from the renewed oxygen supply.
In addition, after jump starting your body with a quick workout, your body continues to assume it’s in workout mode for awhile afterwards. This means, you can be sitting in the car, and sitting in your office and your muscles will just be finishing their job. Consider the advantage of tricking your body into working out longer three times daily instead of once.
Another perk of burst workouts is the variety. In the Seattle Times article, a personal trainer says that keeping the same routine at the gym becomes mundane for you and your body. Soon your body begins to understand the pattern and stops responding as it first did.
The variety in burst workouts is also great for women on the go. A morning workout doesn’t sound so bad when you think about it lasting for as long as your coffee takes to brew. During lunch hour, the idea of walking the stairs in your building at a brisk pace sounds do-able when you consider you’ll be 2/3 done with your daily workout afterwards. At night, jog with the dog half way around the block, and walk the rest. What’s your typical workout schedule? If you split your day into workout bursts, what activities would you do?
