What is your physical fitness goal? Nod along with this sentence if you exercise for at least 30-minutes a day, five times a week. Are you nodding along? If you are, that’s fantastic because that is exactly the recommended amount of exercise that the American Heart Association believes the average individual should be doing. Exercising is such a vital component of staying strong and healthy, both physically and mentally. Yet, a lot of people are still neglecting this aspect, which potentially sets them up for health problems later down the road. I don’t have time. That’s the most common reason cited when asked why a person does not exercise enough. In a week, you have 168 hours. If you could commit 2-hours out of that total per week for the chance to live longer, healthier, happier, would you choose to do it? Would you choose to Get Fit? Fitness is not a quick fix to lose weight as soon as you can. It is a lifestyle choice, one that you should maintain for the rest of your life. It is something you should be incorporating into your daily regiment, like brushing your teeth, having your cup of coffee every morning before you head off to work, taking a shower. On some level, we know that exercise is good for our health. But how much good does it really do? Why should you choose to get fit? Exercising and becoming stronger and fitter reduces the risk of health problems that benefit number one. It boosts your brain functions and improves overall mental health. It trains you mentally to be disciplined. When you start to look and feel better, you become a much more confident person inside and out. The Simple Steps to Get Fit is the perfect solution for the beginner who is looking to incorporate fitness into their lifestyle. A way to ease into the process until you get familiar with it. The basic exercises covered in this book will target your: Biceps Triceps Deltoids Forearms Laterals Chest Trapezius muscles These are the main muscle groups that you should be working on as a start to begin building that upper body strength for more intense exercises later on. Ask most people why they want to begin any kind of exercise program, and they’ll tell you it’s because they want to lose weight and body fat. The answer is most of the time going to be focused on the external appearance, and it’s true, the external appearance is going to display the most noticeable difference. But getting fit is going to impact how you feel on the inside too. When you’re moving more and feel your body getting stronger, your energy levels are going to soar. With all that energy, you’re going to eventually feel like you want to move even more, get up off the couch, go for a walk, do some running, anything that is going to break a sweat. Exercise is not going to feel like a chore anymore. It’s going to be your new lifestyle.

Finally, the solution to the #1 reason we don’t exercise: time. Everyone has one minute. A decade ago, Martin Gibala was a young researcher in the field of exercise physiology—with little time to exercise. That critical point in his career launched a passion for high-intensity interval training (HIIT), allowing him to stay in shape with just a few minutes of hard effort. It also prompted Gibala to conduct experiments that helped launch the exploding science of ultralow-volume exercise. Now that he’s the worldwide guru of the science of time-efficient workouts, Gibala’s first book answers the ultimate question: How low can you go? Gibala’s fascinating quest for the answer makes exercise experts of us all. His work demonstrates that very short, intense bursts of exercise may be the most potent form of workout available. Gibala busts myths (“it’s only for really fit people”), explains astonishing science (“intensity trumps duration”), lays out time-saving life hacks (“exercise snacking”), and describes the fascinating health-promoting value of HIIT (for preventing and reversing disease). Gibala’s latest study found that sedentary people derived the fitness benefits of 150 minutes of traditional endurance training with an interval protocol that involved 80 percent less time and just three minutes of hard exercise per week. Including the eight best basic interval workouts as well as four microworkouts customized for individual needs and preferences (you may not quite want to go all out every time), The One-Minute Workout solves the number-one reason we don’t exercise: lack of time. Because everyone has one minute.
