Mental health providers should prescribe exercise more often for depression, anxiety

Monday, April 5th, 2010

Mental health providers should prescribe exercise more often for depression, anxiety.

We all have heard how exercise has many benefits, both physical and mental.  Maybe it goes in one ear and out the other.  Maybe we need some heinous tragedy to force us to make a change.

Or maybe we need a way to add exercise into our lives in a tolerable fashion.

That’s my contention.  I stare blankly at doctors who tell their patients to get an hour of exercise a day.  I marvel at doctors who neglect to tell patients who so obviously need exercise to go out and get some.

Doctors are very smart and educated people, in general.  So why is there this all or nothing approach to exercise with them?

I think the answer is simple.  Doctors know exercise is important, and they know if they tell us to do it, that we don’t.

So, because most of us fail at listening to this sound advise, some docs don’t even bother giving it any longer.

The “get 60 minutes” crowd is on the other side of the spectrum.  They want you to do it, but they don’t know how to get you to.

MyMobileMinute.com may be the answer that we have all been looking for when it comes to exercise.

Imagine if these two statements were true.

“You only need 90 seconds of exercise at a time.”

“Don’t make ANY major changes.”

Well, turns out they are.

MyMobileMinute is the answer to two questions.

“What is the most effective way to exercise?”

“What is the most effective way to change your habits?”

Work out quicker the Olympic way – LA Daily News

MyMobileMinute - It's Your Minute!

Click for Article ->> Work out quicker the Olympic way – LA Daily News.

Came across this article yesterday … it’s about fitness and how you can get better benefit from a few minutes of exercise repeated a few times throughout the day.

Sound familiar?

www.MyMobileMinute.com, who is MyTherapyNet’s fitness partner, is based on that exact principle.

If you read the article, you may be put off by what they call “intense exercise sessions”.  As soon as I read that, I got on the phone with Michael Carson, America’s Fitness Coach, and the creator of MyMobileMinute for a quick interview:

Michael, thanks for taking the time for an interview this morning.  As you know, we read about Interval Training in the Associate Press, and we saw the direct connection with MyMobileMinute.

Michael Carson

My pleasure.  Yes, MyMobileMinute incorporates interval training, as well as a few other super exciting principles that all work together to give you the best chance that anyone has ever had at getting into healthy condition.

MTN

The first thought that came to mind for us, was the use of the term “intense exercise sessions”.  I personally do MobileMinute, and I wouldn’t call it “intense” by any means.  Does MobileMinute still qualify as this kind of training with the amazing benefits they describe?

Michael Carson

I want you to do your own due diligence, but absolutely, unequivocably, yes.   The reason for that is that “intense” is perception.  What is “intense” for someone who is not an athlete, probably won’t look or feel intense to that person.  As you and many others have found out, MyMobileMinute is as close to not exercising as exercising will ever get – and I know you’re seeing the same kind of results that you did when you’ve done the gym thing, working out for a couple of hours at a time.

MTN

I certainly am a big fan.  It’s exciting to know that what they describe in this article as the benefits of this kind of exercise is attainable from your www.MyMobileMinute.com service.

Michael Carson

Thank you.  We’ve been around for awhile, and we’ve known the benefits intuitively and in practice.  It’s great to see the science behind it!

MTN

Thank you again for taking the time on a Saturday morning to speak with us.  Have a terrific day.
