A member asked:

Ok'd by dr to exercise, but still scared due to anxieties. is it still beneficial if i do (2) 15min cardio sessions/day rather than (1) 30min session?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes beneficial.: Any exercise is better than none. If two 15 minute work outs are better for you go for it.
