See Fitness Results In Just One Minute


One of the most important and life-altering discoveries to come out of the workout world is that getting into shape isn’t an all-or-nothing proposition. In fact, research consistently proves that more frequent bursts of intense physical activity can produce the same muscle-building, fat-blasting, health-boosting benefits as the long-recommended 30 minutes a day. “Any amount of exercise is better than none, and short, repeated bouts may actually beat out one long blast,” says Martin Gibala, Ph.D., chair of the kinesiology department at McMaster University in Canada.

But what if you really only have one minute to spare? Is it truly possible to get your heart pumping in such a short amount of time? The answer is definitively yes.

Benefits of PlaySquash




Sources by istanbulnikerunners

Squash is an indoor racquet sport, played by two or four players in a four-walled court with a small, hollow rubber ball. Squash is a fast-moving and high-impact sport that provides an excellent cardiovascular workout but can place strain on the joints, especially the knees.

Although you need a partner to play squash, many squash centres and clubs offer friendly tournaments and games where you can meet and compete with other squash players.

Suitable for all ages

Squash is a game that can be played at any age. It is easy to learn and there are modified games and equipment to suit every size and skill level. Squash can be played for leisure or as a competitive sport.
