Can ten minutes of exercise be enough?

Ten minutes of exercise, of which one minute intensively can be enough. Skeptical? Research has been done.

Two groups of men cycled three times a week for three months. Both groups did a different workout. Both training sessions started with a warm-up and ended with a cool-down.

1. Give everything three times for twenty seconds. Cycle for two minutes at a normal pace. Total:10 minutes.
2. Cycle at a normal pace for 45 minutes.

10 minutes =just as effective
After three months, it turned out that the group of men who cycled for 10 minutes at a time had lost the same amount of fat and had built just as much muscle and condition, while they had only exercised intensively for one minute.
