Developed by Professor Hiroshi Nose and Associate Professor Shizue Masuki of the Department of Advanced Medicine for Health Promotion, interval walking has recently been featured in the New York Times Magazine as a modern way to stay healthy. Interval walking is a novel method of exercise in which brisk walking and slow walking are repeated alternately for 3 minutes each.
The article highlights the technique of this exercise and its effectiveness in health and strength improvement and includes comments from Drs. Nose and Masuki.
