The latest in fitness is to do your workout in as few minutes as possible. This only makes good sense. And it would inspire those who don’t now workout to hear the words 20 minutes vs. 2 hours. My gosh, what a turn off 2 hours is for most of us. This smart move doesn’t mean you are to get less of a workout. It means you are using your time better. You just need to use the right tools and routines. Circuit training immediately come to mind. Circuit training means doing 4-6 different exercises that reach different muscles without resting between exercises. Mostly these exercises are weight training but you can sprinkle in some running- in- place or jumping jacks or something like that. Do this set three times with a one minute rest between sets. Not only do you save time but studies show you even get a better workout. Now, how can you beat that? Toss in Whole Body Vibration and you get even more benefit. Just stand on the vibrating board and do your compound exercises. These good vibrations simply make your workout more effective.

I think circuit training is the best exercise for people who are busy and are always on the go. I’ve heard of some circuit training programs that last for 30 minutes yet I’ve never heard of one that’s only for 20 minutes. This would be interesting though.
