three minute exercise : Physical activity is considered beneficial for people of all ages. Recently, a UK Biobank study of 30,000 people found that physical activity between 6 pm and midnight improved the health of obese people. People who were active in the evening had the lowest risk of premature death from heart disease.
A recent study proved that three minutes of short activity can be more beneficial than people’s total daily physical activity.
According to a report by Bristol Live, exercise expert and owner of ExerC Gavin Cowper has shared three ways people can improve their health with just 3 minutes of exercise. You must have noticed that interval training became quite popular during the Corona period because there are many benefits of doing it.
High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a great way to max out your workout in a short amount of time.
So let’s know about this exercise routine…
High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)
star jump : First do star jump for 30 seconds to warm up the body and increase the heart rate.
bodyweight squats : This is an exercise to activate the lower body, so do bodyweight squats for 30 seconds.
mountain climbers : To activate the muscles around the core, i.e. the stomach, do this exercise for 30 seconds and your mini HIIT workout is complete. Repeat with a 20-second break between each round.
Cardio: This session will increase the heart rate, which is classified as cardio.
burpees :This is a very good exercise. Burpees are performed by combining three exercises – squat, jump and plank. One rep burns 1.65 calories. Do as many burpees as you can in 30 seconds.
high knees : Immediately after burpees, do high knees for 30 seconds. This exercise involves running while standing at one place. Just make sure your knees come up as high as possible.
skipping : After this, complete this set by skipping for 30 seconds. This can be done easily anywhere. Rest for 30 seconds after completing the circuit, then do a total of three rounds.
core plank : To increase the stability of the muscles around the core, i.e. the stomach, do this exercise for 30 seconds.
Russian twist To do this exercise, you will have to sit on the floor and lean back a little and then bend your legs a little and touch the floor on both sides.
leg lift To do this exercise, you have to lie down on your back and bring your legs straight up to the chest. Do this exercise also for 30 seconds. Rest 20 seconds between each round and then repeat three more times.
