How long does it take to get fit?

The good news is it doesn't take long to improve your fitness.

The bad news is you lose fitness very quickly if you stop exercising.

On this episode, Gab and Sarah look at what happens if you stop training for more than a few days at a time, and how interval training can help improve your fitness a lot faster than you might think.
