Great article by the Associated Press this past week:
Associated Press: Study- 10-minute exercise has hour-long effect
Bottom line here- work out and the effects to your cardiovascular system last long after you quit. However, I would say, based on my last video- that the effects might last much longer than an hour. If you will remember— and if you don’t, you can watch it here—- working out prevents vasoconstriction for, according to the study I read, up to 17 hours!!!! 17 HOURS!!!!!
Anyway- got to get moving!!!!

Reports like these are what got me up off my fanny 3 years ago. At the time 20-30 minutes exercise was my MAX, and it helped motivate me to know that even that had a benefit. Thanks for spreading the message.

This is very interesting to me. In reading the “Primal Blueprint” the author promotes exercise at lower intensity and time. This seems to go along the lines of what this article says.

it doesnt take forever—and we can all find 10 minutes.

This is a great post. Especially for all of us the claim we don’t have time to work out! I am glad I ran across your blog today.
