What is It?
Intermittent exercise, unlike continuous workouts, involves short bursts of high-intensity activity interspersed with brief rest periods. Think of it like a Bollywood
dance number where you push yourself and then cool down. It’s designed to be efficient and effective, fitting into busy schedules seamlessly.
Benefits Galore!
Intermittent exercise offers a plethora of benefits. It can improve cardiovascular health, boost metabolism, and increase muscle strength. It’s also known to enhance endurance and even help with weight management. Consider it your one-stop shop for fitness, like a chaat stall with everything you need!
Getting Started Now
Ready to dive in? Start with short bursts of activity like brisk walking, running, or cycling, followed by brief rest periods. Begin with 15-20 minutes and gradually increase the duration as you get fitter. Consult a fitness professional before starting any new exercise regimen, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
Making it a Habit
Consistency is key. Try incorporating intermittent exercise into your routine at least three times a week. Find activities you enjoy; whether it is playing badminton or doing a few rounds of Surya Namaskar. This will make the process enjoyable and increase the likelihood of sticking to it. Remember, small steps lead to big changes!
