Brief bursts of exercise may be better for arteries

A few short spurts of exercise scattered throughout the day may clear the bloodstream of an important artery-clogging fat better than a single workout would. Researchers at Southwest Missouri State University and the University of Missouri found that three 10-minute bursts of exercise lowered the blood level of triglycerides, a fat linked with increased coronary risk, more than one continuous 30-minute session did. Though the study, published in August 2004 in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, tested only 18 people, its results bolster evidence that you can effectively meet your exercise quota at least in part by squeezing short, brisk walks, bike rides, or stair climbs, for example, into your everyday routine.
