Krav Maga combines self-defense techniques with components of kickboxing, karate, jiujitsu and judo to form a challenging aerobic workout, but is it intense enough to improve physical fitness and impact weight management? Read this ACE-sponsored research to find out.

Some believe that reduced-exertion high-intensity interval training (REHIT), which features 10-minute workout sessions, may be the key to overcoming the “lack of time” barrier to regular exercise.

In this latest ACE-sponsored study, researchers quantified the acute physiological responses to exercise with the Core-Tex and measured the effectiveness of a six-week chronic exercise training program using the Core-Tex for improving cardiorespiratory, muscular, flexibility and neuromotor fitness.
