The 100-Calorie Secret - Never Diet Again!

Do you have 30 seconds – 3 times a week to improve your metabolism and prevent diabetes and heart disease?  That's all it takes to reverse all of the complications of gaining weight!

Look at your watch and time how long it takes to read this article- 30, 45 or 60 seconds? -that’s the same amount of time three times a week you need to exercise to reverse all of the metabolic changes of weight gain. Careful, it will not produce weight loss, only reverse some of the dangers of obesity.

A regular high-intensity, three-minute workout has a significant effect on the body's ability to process sugars. Research published in the journal BMC Endocrine Disorder shows that a brief but intense exercise session every couple of days may be the best way to cut the risk of diabetes and improve metabolic abnormalities.

Dr.  James Timmons investigated the effect of 'high-intensity interval training' on metabolism.  He said, "The risk of developing cardiovascular disease and type two diabetes is substantially reduced through regular physical activity. Unfortunately, many people feel they simply don't have the time to follow current exercise guidelines. What we have found is that doing a few intense muscle exercises, each lasting only about 30 seconds, dramatically improves your metabolism in just two week."

Current exercise guidelines suggest that people should perform moderate exercise for several hours per week.  Of course, everyone would profit by the effort, but the lack of compliance indicates most obesity prone individuals will simply not spend the time it takes to  exercise, especially if disrupts their daily activities.

Recognizing this, Dr Timmons designed a 30 second – 3 times a week exercise using a stationary bike set on the highest resistance possible. Consistently performing this exercise only for 30 seconds had the same protective metabolic improvements as hours of standard exercises. Timmons added, "This novel approach may help people to lead a healthier life, improve the future health of the population  ... making it easier for people to find the time to exercise."
