Little and often
If better aerobic fitness is your goal but lengthy jogs leave you cold, Dr Mosley says science has some good news. One of the most surprising findings from his latest research is that short bursts of intense exercise have a profound effect on heart and lung function, and you don’t have to be an endurance athlete so see meaningful results.
“We did a test with a group of volunteers aged 25 to 45, where we put them on a stationary bike and after a warm-up, got them to do a 20-second burst of intense exercise, then have a small break, followed by another 20-second burst. The key is to really push yourself in those 20 seconds, and it needs to be done three times a week.
“After a couple of months, we saw big improvements in their aerobic ability, and the scientist leading the research said it would usually have taken 45 minutes of running three times a week to achieve similar levels of fitness.”
