Physical exercise can hep you improve your health, relieve stress, reduce depression, provide a sense of accomplishment, and produce a “runner’s high”. Over the years I practiced mixed martial arts, went to the gym, trained with a personal fitness trainer, and took various exercise classes. Nowadays, I use my own bodyweight to maintain physical and mental fitness. Yes, physical exercise also has a strong positive influence on your brain. Why bodyweight exercise?

Get an hour’s results in just 25 minutes a day. The only thing standing between you and the results you want is time. That’s why trainer Shaun T experimented for the last year to design a program that delivers the same kind of results you’d expect from an hour-long program, in under 30 minutes. The result is FOCUS T25-and the name implies the intent: If you focus your intensity for 25 minutes, and you do it 5 days a week, you will get results.
