 | | Interval training works both your aerobic and anaerobic systems, “and the benefits are amazing,” states Scott Danberg, MS, Director of Exercise at the Pritikin Longevity Center and Spa. |
 | | Scientists recently concluded that high-intensity intervals (one- to two-minute bouts of vigorous aerobic exercise at the high end of one’s target heart rate zone alternated with low-intensity bouts) were a safe alternative to traditional cardiac rehabilitation for people with coronary artery disease who are basically in good condition. |
 | | Moreover, interval training provided additional benefits, particularly stronger muscles, which, the authors reported, would be especially helpful for the performance of many activities of daily living, from carrying grocery bags to playing with children and grandchildren.* |
