Fast Exercise – by Dr. Michael Mosley & Peta Bee

We’ve written before about the benefits of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), but there’s more to say than we can fit in a short article!

Dr. Michael Mosley, who hates exercise but knows his stuff when it comes to the benefits, teamed up with Peta Bee, who loves exercise and is a science journalist with degrees in sports science and nutrition, to bring us this book.

In it, we learn a lot about:

• the science of HIIT
• what makes it so different from most kinds of exercise
• exactly what benefits one can expect

…in a very detailed clinical fashion (while still remaining very readable).

By “very detailed clinical fashion”, here we mean “one minute of this kind of exercise this many times per week over this period of time will give this many extra healthy life-years”, for example, along with lots of research to back numbers, and explanations of the mechanisms of action (e.g. reducing inflammatory biomarkers of aging, increasing cellular apoptosis, improving cardiometabolic stats for reduced CVD risk, and many things)

There’s also time/space given over to exactly what to do and how to do it, giving enough options to suit personal tastes/circumstances.

Bottom line: if you’d like to make your exercise work a lot harder for you while you spend a lot less time working out, then this book will help you do just that!
