The Power of Isometrics: Fitness for All Ages
I wrote an article about how committing even five minutes a day to exercise can pay dividends in the long run when it comes to burning fat, building muscle, or (most importantly) maintaining your health and longevity in the battle against Father Time.

I also mentioned that this example was only one of many possibilities. Some people may prefer something more intense; some may need something less intense.
