Seven minutes of high-intensity training several times a day, totaling about 30 minutes, can achieve 72 hours of post-exercise hot burning effect. What is a 7-minute cycle?
That is to say, a set of high-intensity training movements is carried out within 7 minutes. The action time of each action is 30 seconds, rest 10 seconds, and then change to the next action, so it takes about 7 minutes to complete 12 actions. The American Sports Medicine Association recommends repeating physical exercises several times a day, with a limit of 30 minutes.
Benefits of 7-minute cycle exercise:
The aftereffect of some high-intensity exercises can reach 72 hours.
This kind of exercise is short, but the effect is amazing. 7-minute cyclic exercise can increase muscle mass and enzyme activity in muscle, so that people have more muscles to burn calories and improve the body's basal metabolic rate. The most surprising thing is that the fat burning time will last until after the exercise!
Constant intensity continuous exercise, such as setting the treadmill to run at the same speed for 30 minutes, is mainly used to burn fat while running. However, many studies have pointed out that if you do 20 minutes of high-intensity interval training, you will continue to burn calories within 24 hours after exercise, even exceeding the continuous exercise. In other words, when you rest, your body will have a "afterburner effect", because high-intensity interval training will make your body reach its limit, and you need more calories to restore your body function.
