Working out for only 15 minutes a week?

You can get stronger and healthier with one full-body High Intensity workout per week. You can workout more often and not have any ill effects, however it is not necessary so long as you do the workout with sufficient intensity of effort, progressive overload and consistently over the course of your life.
