Everybody talks about the numerous benefits that come with exercising, but just how often do people need to exercise for them to experience these benefits? It’s no surprise if you have been thinking about this too. When it comes to the best workout plan as a medical student, one has to argue over the right time and level of exercise to take, always. After all, new research from ECU sheds some light into it. The Study Setup Imagine doing a single activity that only takes three seconds – like slow

Edith Cowan University research revealed that muscle strength benefits are seen with consistent, short exercise sessions. Participants performing a three-second eccentric bicep contraction thrice weekly saw strength improvements. Daily 20-minute exercises might be more beneficial than a single 2-hour weekly session. Regularity, even in short durations, is key to health benefits.

    This is barely a study. I have heard and agree on frequently exercising but giving people 1 single bicep curl 2x a week vs 3x a week for a month seems really inconsequential

        Sure, but my critique is more “is their article worth making based on minimal findings and one person’s suggestion in quote form?”
