What if improving your strength didn't require an hour at the gym? Yes, you read that right. A new study has suggested that four minutes of daily exercise may be enough to improve mobility, independence and overall fitness in older adults.
According to a new study from researchers at Penn State College of Medicine, just four minutes of daily strengthening exercise can lead to significant improvements in strength, balance and physical function among adults aged 65 and older. Researchers say the findings challenge the common belief that meaningful fitness gains require long workout sessions.
