"It's back to the gym for Chloë McPolin, but this time with a personal trainer and a twist - namely a once-a-week, 20-minute workout that gets results... Hobby comrades, with 2026 well and truly upon us - and the classic 'new year, new me' mantra being thrown around - I decided there was nothing more fitting than a return to the gym... but this time with a personal trainer."
"Hobby comrades, with 2026 well and truly upon us - and the classic 'new year, new me' mantra being thrown around - I decided there was nothing more fitting than a return to the gym... but this time with a personal trainer. As always, there is a twist. I'd heard talk of a new, minimal-activity, no-sweat fitness regimen that supposedly delivers a full workout in just 20 minutes, once a week."
Chloë McPolin returned to the gym with a personal trainer to test a minimal-activity, no-sweat fitness regimen promising a full workout in just 20 minutes once a week. The trial occurred amid New Year resolution momentum in early 2026 and aimed to explore time-efficient exercise. The approach centers on a single weekly, trainer-led session emphasizing concise movements intended to stimulate progress without extended exertion. Initial feelings combined mild skepticism with curiosity, prompting participation to determine whether such limited frequency and short duration can yield measurable fitness results.
