THIS IS THE LITTLE MACHINE...THAT CAN!!!!!!!! | ||
 |  | The Xiser Machine™ was engineered to ensure correct hip and knee alignment, providing an optimal, impact free workout. The hands-free design promotes the development of stabilizer muscles and correct posture, thus improving balance. Stepping on the Xiser is like doing multiple one-legged squats on both legs at the same time. This creates a great demand on the muscles because there is no rest period for the muscles during stepping. This type of exercise (Burst Training) challenges both aerobic and anaerobic systems at the same time. That is why the Xiser can produce such a wide range of benefits in as little as 12 minutes per week and is safe and effective for everybody.  Burst Exercise Articles |
Constructive Exercise in 4 minutes per day? | ||
Sprint ( Burst ) your way to better Health by Dr. Mark J. Smith | ||
|
Now you might be thinking "I can't sprint, and besides my doctor told me that I need to exercise 20 minutes three days a week for a healthy heart". This way of thinking, that to have a healthy heart one needs to engage in low to moderate intensity continuous "aerobic" activity for at least 20 minutes, is firmly established within both the fitness industry and the medical community. Although it is well established in the scientific literature that this kind of exercise can indeed improve one's cardiovascular condition, it is not as well understood that it is the only way, in fact it is not the best approach for a number of reasons. Back in 1995, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) and the American College of Sports Medicine joined forces to take a hard look at the scientific literature, due to the lack then of success and the then current guidelines for exercise. The published findings were a significant change to the old mantra and the closing summation of their findings was, and I quote, "accumulation of physical activity in intermittent, short bouts is considered an appropriate approach to achieving the activity goal." That activity was to burn between 120 and 210 calories per day, as the research had shown that the risk for cardiovascular disease as well as other sedentry lifestyle-related diseases, was significantly reduced upon doing so. Those who have spent time in sports will recognize that the above mentioned is nothing more than interval training. Better still, recent research that has begun to examine in greater frequency the effects of interval training is showing that sprint (burst) interval training is by far the best way to train. Last year a study published in the highly respected Journal of Applied Physiology showed as little as 16 minutes of sprint interval training (in 30 second intervals with four minutes of recovery between bouts, over two weeks doubled the participant's cardiovascular endurance. Great results without the investment of time - now that is success! Burst training is now the wave of the future and time is no longer an excuse. Get all the exercise you need in just 4 minutes per day. You can greatly increase your metabolism and lose weight by exercising in short intervals at high intensity where the demand for oxygen is much higher than can be supplied. This type of training creates a debt of oxygen in just one minute. As you resume your normal activities your body will repay that debt of oxygen. This repayment of debt means that your body burns extra calories throughout the day without any additional workout time! Please view the attached studies and research below.
