Interval Training for the Win!
It’s that time of year again. Time to evaluate our year and who we want to become this year. Last year was a bust for everyone, so this year will be a fun new adventure — I keep telling myself this so that it comes to pass.
I have heard from many of my students about the “COVID-15”. That is to say the extra weight that many people are carrying around due to the quarantine and other issues that have arisen.
Whether or not exercise affects weight loss has been an ongoing topic of conversation for researchers. Guidelines have noted that one needs to exercise 150-250 minutes per week doing moderate-intensity aerobic exercise to prevent weight gain or to mildly reduce body mass, or about 5 pounds. More than 420 minutes per week to lose more weight, or about 10 pounds.
