Still trying to find the motivation to keep going to the gym like you promised yourself you would earlier this month?

Well, then, how about getting more bang for your buck?

Scientists at Oregon State University have found that just ONE HOUR of exercise will boost the metabolism and other sciency terms for TWO FULL DAYS.

“What we found is that, regardless of what fuel the mitochondria were using, there were mild increases in the ability to burn off the fuels. It’s pretty remarkable that even after just one hour of exercise, these people were able to burn off a little more fuel,: lead author Dr. Matt Robinson, an assistant professor in the university’s College of Public Health and Human Sciences, said in a statement. “From a big picture health perspective, it’s very encouraging for people to realize that you can get health benefits from a single session of exercise. We’re trying to encourage people, ‘You did one, why don’t you try to do two? Let’s do three.'”

Robinson did caution that the benefits from the single hour do fade away after a couple of days, so making it a regular habit will help with the long-term.
