Maybe you want to workout to get in shape, lose weight, gain endurance or get stronger. But when you try to, you just can’t stick with it or you just can’t find the time.

Think you don’t have time to workout? I say you do. If your life is too busy to fit in 30 minutes to an hour of exercise, like the world tells us to, then don’t. Instead do small 1 minute workouts spread out throughout the day. If you do an intense exercise, you may find that 1 minute is all you need.
