You don’t have to spend hours at a gym to reap the health benefits of exercise. Fitness experts agree that just 10 minutes of exercise a day can improve oxygen intake, reduce blood pressure, blood sugar, and lower cholesterol levels. It can also help lift our mood, get quality sleep and generally improve the quality of our lives.
Getting over the mental barrier of needing a full hour of working out is a good starting point. When we have that mindset and can’t find the time to do a workout, we risk doing nothing and reaching for the remote control instead. But almost anyone can find an extra 10 minutes in their day to exercise.
And you don’t need fancy expensive equipment either. A simple pair of inexpensive dumbbells (or adjustable dumbbells) can help activate several different muscles, improve flexibility, stimulate muscle growth and promote stability and coordination for muscles and joints, to name a few.
