Doctors Say 10 Minutes of Exercise a Day Can Aid Weight Loss
Posted on 2026-03-09 19:49:14
Doctors in Taiwan say that as little as ten minutes of exercise five days per
week may be enough to help people slim down.

They pointed to research published in the Journal of Obesity and Metabolic
Syndrome, which followed 26 young women who were overweight or obese and did
not usually exercise.

Participants in the exercise group performed short high-intensity workouts
five days a week, including brief stair-climbing sprints after a short
warm-up.

After four weeks, the group lost an average of about 1.3 kilograms, while
waistlines shrank by roughly one and a half centimeters and cardiovascular
fitness improved.

Doctors say stair climbing is an efficient full-body workout that can easily
be added to daily routines, such as taking the stairs during a commute.

They also recommend combining exercise with balanced eating habits for better
long-term weight control.
