Cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick bait.

Its not exercise for 1 minute. Its exercise for 10 minutes, with 1 minute of that being all out. The actual comparison is 10 minutes vs 45, not 1 minute vs 45 as headline says.

I think author could have said as effectively 10 minutes of interval exercise may have benefits of 45 minutes of moderate exercise

A much more accurate summary, thanks.

What the 10 minutes (with 1 minute all out) gets closer to HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), something which I highly recommend.

Here is a great study which describes some of the benefits - you'll notice that the researchers ran into some trouble with the duration "rest period" versus "sprint period", but otherwise, there are some great results. [0]

This is a nice, informative, concise comment. IMO, it would be stronger if it didn't start with a childish insult.

I disagree. It would be weaker if it didn't start with a childish insult.
