Download or read book The One Minute Workout written by Martin Gibala and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, the solution to the #1 reason we don’t exercise: time. Everyone has one minute. A decade ago, Martin Gibala was a young researcher in the field of exercise physiology—with little time to exercise. That critical point in his career launched a passion for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), allowing him to stay in shape with just a few minutes of hard effort. It also prompted Gibala to conduct experiments that helped launch the exploding science of ultralow-volume exercise. Now that he’s the worldwide guru of the science of time-efficient workouts, Gibala’s first book answers the ultimate question: How low can you go? Gibala’s fascinating quest for the answer makes exercise experts of us all. His work demonstrates that very short, intense bursts of exercise may be the most potent form of workout available. Gibala busts myths (“it’s only for really fit people”), explains astonishing science (“intensity trumps duration”), lays out time-saving life hacks (“exercise snacking”), and describes the fascinating health-promoting value of HIIT (for preventing and reversing disease). Gibala’s latest study found that sedentary people derived the fitness benefits of 150 minutes of traditional endurance training with an interval protocol that involved 80 percent less time and just three minutes of hard exercise per week. Including the eight best basic interval workouts as well as four microworkouts customized for individual needs and preferences (you may not quite want to go all out every time), The One-Minute Workout solves the number-one reason we don’t exercise: lack of time. Because everyone has one minute.

Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1 – How to Use This Book Chapter 2 - The Basics of HIIT Chapter 3 – Is HIIT The Right Workout for Me? Chapter 4 – Simple HIIT Workouts Conclusion Author Bio Introduction So, you’ve tried out various workouts, weight loss programs, and gym rituals and things are working out all right, but you’re not seeing results that satisfy you completely. That’s exactly where a HIIT workout can help you. Cast aside the belief that a jog or brisk walk is a good enough daily dose of exercise for you, because sure, they help, but if you want to see real and sustained positive change with your body, a toned physique, and a slender figure, you need to step up the game to a whole new level. The most fundamental problem when it comes to weight loss, working out, and seeing positive change in our bodies, is that we often doubt ourselves. We hesitate or give up too early before we are able to notice the benefits that exercise can have on our lives. You see, exercise isn’t just about shaping your body. It’s a workout that affects your physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing. Without regular exercise and without looking after our physical health, we may as well kiss all other forms of health goodbye. Exercise is proven to be a truly powerful force in terms of fighting off the symptoms and onset of depression. Working out can have this beneficial effect on your brain by encouraging the release of serotonin, a chemical that can lift our mood and feelings of self-appreciation and confidence. It is this chemical that forms the basis of our self-esteem. Regular exercise and working out thoroughly, on a daily basis, will not only whip your body into shape and mold fatty tissue into lean muscle, but it also reduces your risk of developing a manner of nasty health problems in the future. You’re probably already aware of the growing obesity and heart disease crisis. The simple fact is that both of these health complications can be fought off with the successful and determined implementation of regular exercise and fitness training. With HIIT workouts in particular, your heart and circulatory system are given a real run for their money. You will be strengthening your vital organ and improving your heart’s ability to cope with stress and pressure – both in a physical and emotional sense. Now of course, working through a HIIT workout isn’t a walk in the park. It takes real strength, persistence, and resilience and is certainly not for the faint hearted. If you’re up for a real challenge, in terms of fitness and working out, then you’re certainly in the right place. This book will provide a guide that walks through the basics of what a HIIT workout is, the benefits in terms of physical and mental health, the risks and precautions, and a number of helpful tips when undergoing a HIIT workout. This book will also present a number of simple and quick HIIT workouts and exercise activities that can be carried out at home or in thy gym. So, if you’re ready to step up your game and head straight down the path to a stronger, leaner, and healthier body – read on. This is the beginning of crafting the body that you’re striving for, the reflection in the mirror that will make you proud, confident, and even more optimistic about your health than ever before. It all starts here and it all starts now.
