Special to The Examiner We know that you’re busier than a starlet at The Ivy. But you can still get the CD for your friend’s birthday made, the dishes and laundry done, the squeak in your car looked at, AND eat healthy meals and get physical activity. These multitaskers help you do it all throughout your day … and de-stress, too.

Cut your workout short. But make it harder. Guys who did four to six go-for-broke 30-second sprints on a bike got the same gains in muscle fitness as those who went for 90 to 120 minutes at a moderate pace. In a different study, the same type of sprints improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, meaning it decreased their risk for unhealthy blood sugar and, eventually, diabetes. Total calorie burn was a puny 250, so you’ll still need longer workouts if you’re looking to torch fat. But for your health, short, fast intervals will get you somewhere.
