Surge Training, or Burst Training, as we refer to and teach in Maximized Living, has finally made the medical research. It's about time.
This article, "Brief but Intense Exercise May Thwart Diabetes," describes a study that showed doing brief 3 minute high-intense exercises significantly improves measures dealing w/ Diabetes.
Over the course of 2 weeks, the participants completed 6 sessions of supervised high-intensity interval training. Each session consisted of four-to-six 30-second sprints on a stationary bicycle.
Type-2 Diabetes is completely reversible! Sadly, the medical profession doesn't typically 'advertise' it this way. The RX drug ads on TV aim more to help you 'live' with diabetes well. That is ethically wrong and pretty much a big middle finger to everybody purchasing their drugs. So, what does this exercise look like...
Monday, Wednesday, Friday --
20 seconds sprints on stat. bike/ or running in place
20 sec. rest
20 seconds sprints on stat. bike/ or running in place
20 sec. rest
20 seconds sprints on stat. bike/ or running in place
--> and repeat 1 time. That's it. You can also replace any exercise you want to, as long as you are doing it INTENSELY! Squat thrusts, push ups, crunches, whatever!
