The perfect 30-minute work out is one you will still be doing next year. If you can maintain going to the gym every other day great! But for many a gym membership turns into a fat tax. Everyone should find activities that they enjoy that gives them the workout they need. Every other day try a new physical activity till you find two or three that you adore. Play tennis, swim, go roller blading, in short get a life and you will find that the pounds will soon disappear. If you can find an activity that someone you care about loves as well the likelihood of you continuing this activity increases, and your relationship with them will improve as well. |

30 minutes isn't really long enough but the basic exercises are push ups either from the floor or a bench top which gives the chest and shoulders a workout then hold the bench top and do some squats for bucepts take a couple of cans of fruit and use them as barbells you should feel these excercises cover your needs for a short workout and while walking squeeze the butt to tighten up muscles you will be looking and feeling good in a few weeks |

The best 30 minute workout is one you do everyday. Break a sweat, get winded, and put resistance on your muscles.
I like boxing (heavy bag and double end bag). 3 3 minute rounds on each with crunches in between. I alternate days with weights and treadmill for the rest of the time. |

I'm a health freak and i have found that any cardio for 30 min a day (mostly running or jogging) works really well. |

The perfect 30 minute work out is interval training that includes both cardio and weight training. In both, you push your self to your maximum level, then switch to the other method of training, i.e. cardio to weight training, and back again. You allow yourself a brief period to lower your intensity, before maxing out again. The interval of backing off from your max will depend on your current level of fitness. This type of training will provide about as rapid results as you can get, allowing for a day off between work outs. On the off days, being active in activities such as fast paced walking will keep your metabolism at a heightened level while allowing your muscles to recover. More intense workouts may require more than a day off for your muscles to rebuild before your next training session. |

The idea is to get your heart beat to above 140 beats per minute and maintain that level for 20 mins. Do what ever works for you to attain this...skip,hop,swim,jog,sprint...you shall do well. Dont worry about many other aspects. This mantra works for all. |

Perfect 30 minute workout is cardio intervals while incorporating some strength training moves.
Do 1:1 ratio
30 secs running/jogging
30 secs of walking
or any other type of cardio moves.
after doing about 15 minutes of cardio intervals switch to circuit training so you do at least 1 minute of cardio and 1 minute of squats/lunges/bicep curls...
Just push yourself to do your workout harder. Benchmark the participants on the Biggest Loser. You notice on the first day they are doing CHALLENGING workouts, not that wimpy crap like walking. If they are walking they are walking hills. |

That all depends on your fitness level, age, and your eating habits. A perfect 30-minute workout could cover a whole wide workout plan. For the purpose of answering your question, here's what I think:
Run and/or do a fast walk or use a treadmill everyday so that your heart beat goes to as close to your maximum rate as possible for 30 minutes(aproximately 170 beats per minute). The formula is 217 - (0.85 x Age). This would allow you to burn as much calories as you can.
Then eat healthy. Forget the junk food. |

any kind of workout, as long as you do it everyday and keep it up for 30 mins. even 20+ will be better than no work out at all. so get up on your a s s and do your 15, 20, or 30 mins. of exercising than none at all.... |

A good run from the police. You have trash cans to jump over, gates to hop, and you think you are the winner but are you really? Just think of it as running track or the 10K with extra motivation to keep you going. And if you feel tired just take a look back and see the police dog trailing right behind you ready to attack! |

Running is absurd, ingracious and only to be used in an emergency.
Walking is civilised, can be done at quite a high speed, and gets you somewhere. The benefit of walking, at varying speeds, on different surfaces, inclines, hills, is amplified if you aim for a different destination every time: or at least reward yourself with, say, a coffee or a visit to a friend.
Walking can also be acomplished, and is perhaps improved, with comany: you can talk or not talk - both are equally acceptable when sharing a walk.
You can also accomplish this without wearing ridiculous clothing: it is no effort at all. You will soon find yourself increasing the length, range and purposes of the walks you take, and you will forget they are exercise and will instead become sheer pleasure. Even walking in the rain or snow can be beautiful.
If you want to be useful, offer a neighbour to walk their dog.
If you want to be friendly, ask the neighbour to accompany you. |

Dance Revolution. You can set it on whatever level you are used to. Grab some 5lbs weights (or two medium flashlights with batteries inside in case you can not afford weights. You can always get creative!) and work it out.
You don't have to leave the comfort of your home, you can exercise, build hand eye coordination, and have fun all at the same time! |

for me, personally, the curves for women 30 minute work out, has had tremendous results for me. i have lost about 60 pounds, some body fat, (can't remember the number) was able to go off blood pressure meds, i feel better.
everyone has to find their niche. what works for me, might not work for someone else. but the bottom line is....get moving! you will feel better, and might even make new friends! |

The perfect 30 minute workout is actually dependent on the person, their metabolism, and how much they eat on a daily basis. Any workout that has you reaching your optimum heart rate for more than 20 minutes will burn sufficient calories.
Cardiovascular workouts tend to work the whole body, and that is an excellent way to feel the burn as many might like to say. My suggestion, is to make a diagram of yourself, what are your problem areas? When you know this, especially if you are using tape or DVD based workouts, you can then concentrate on the section of your body that is not in the best shape.
However, for integrated workouts, I would suggest a good dose of cardio, you will feel the burn, and will melt fat away from areas you may not have thought of, because overall, they are designed to be full body workouts. |

This is the million dollar question. It can vary depending on what your actual goal is.
Remember this: F-I-T = Frequency, Intensity & Time
If you can consistently do appropriate exercises for strength, cardio for endurance & stretching with the proper amount of intensity for the 30 minutes you have allotted, you can see results.
A suggestion would be interval training with minimal time between sets. You could do this 3 times a week and exercise your entire body including cardio. You could easily rotate between exercises & cardio to get in the 'perfect 30-minute workout'. |
