Well” blog reported that according to a study published Nov. 3 in PLoS One, “a single minute of intense exercise, embedded within an otherwise easy 10-minute workout, can improve fitness and health.” After recruiting “a group of 14 sedentary and overweight but otherwise healthy men and women,” then asking the participants to undergo three weekly 10-minute sessions of interval cardio on stationary bicycles for six weeks, researchers then found that both “men and women had increased their endurance capacity by an average of 12 percent, a significant improvement.” http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/12/10/one-minute-workout/?ref=health
