So, of course the doctor is going to say that, “yes, you should exercise for 60 minutes each day…” NOPE… Not going to happen.

She explains that women should be eating better instead of exercising more. Sure, I can agree with eating better, but why not still encourage women to move more! Not just for weight loss, but to stay healthy. What about osteoporosis? Keeping a healthy heart rate and blood pressure in check? What about just for the sake of their mental health? I don’t know about you but I am in a much better mood after I train for an hour. And how about just keeping a baseline of strength so you can pick up bags of groceries or your kids.

One hour of activity can be doing a Yoga DVD for 30 minutes in the morning, then walking your dog for 30 minutes at night! Come on health professionals!

All we are doing is giving people MORE EXCUSES!!!

First off you have a, “Medical Correspondent” who clearly has never heard of HIIT until the morning of the broadcast. Seriously? I will never blame general practitioners of not know this stuff because their scope has to be so broad, but she was asked to talk about the subject and to give her opinion as an expert.

Her opinion was that (interval training), “is the uber workout.” This video isn’t the airing I saw live. Where the host asked her if shed used HIIT and she said something like, “No, but I will now!”

Personally, I think it is good that people are getting some info out there on HIIT and hopefully strength training. Even The Biggest Loser has had some beneficial moments with the sled training and kettle-bells. Just remember the source and the commentary that follows it.
