[quote=Anonymous]People who say that 20 minutes isn't enough don't know what they're talking about. It's what you DO with the 20 minutes that counts. The NY Times 7 minute workout will kick almost everyone's butt. Ditto for crossfit. If you have access to a gym, try doing hard running intervals, or incline intervals (I don't mean an incline of 2-3, but an incline of 10/15). Do resistance intervals on an elliptical, where you bump the resistance to 10/15 for a minute or two, before bringing it down for a minute or two. All of those will really get your heart rate up even for a short period of time, and most experts agree that HIIT (high intensity interval training) is excellent for health in short bursts of time, if not better than easier, longer-duration workouts. Longer is not necessarily better, or more effective at burning fat and calories. [/quote]
