That exercise really tired me. I followed your recommendation this for 20 minutes and I can really feel it working! Is it healthy to extend this for 30 minutes instead of 20 minutes?
Thanks!
Chip,
If the exercise really tired you, you may want to keep it to twenty minutes. You can always extend your training session with less intense forms of activity: powerwalking, tai chi, yoga, etc.
There is nothing wrong with extending the daily workouts for 30, 40, or more minutes. The 20 minute format is simply a model. Each trainee should adjust it according to his/her needs, desires, and abilities.
