Shorter workout for more weight loss
Exercise speeds up your metabolism, and when you get moving several times a day you keep that internal calorie-burning engine amped up.
In 12-week study at the University of New Hampshire, exercises who did two 15-minutes cardio sessions a day boosted their aerobic fitness nearly twice as much as those who did one 30-minute bout daily.
A separate study at the University of Pittsburgh found that women who divided 40 minutes of cardio into four 10-minute sessions throughout the day lost 20 pounds over five months, while women who did one 40-minute workout lost just 14 pounds.
Try doing a quick jog in the morning and another after work instead of going on one longer run. And I don’t have to tell you….. Take those stairs as often as possible.
