Why It's Never Too Late To Start Exercising

Regular exercise is key to living a longer, more independent lifestyle as you age. However, some people live very busy lives between work, family, social time etc. It may not always be feasible to dedicate a "chunk" of time in your day specifically for exercise.

Does this work and is it just as effective doing one longer workout?

2). If splitting up your workouts into smaller exercises throughout the day is just as effective as one long workout.
