Study suggests that getting your body accustomed to 30 second sprints can help to control panic attack symptoms.
I like the disclaimer at the end:
"Oh, but don't do this if your heart is on the wonk cos it'll likely kill you, m'kay."

@StefanoGaivota The full workout, with a 15 minute warmup followed by 6 30-second sprints along with several minutes of recovery, adds up to a 45-minute bout of exercise). Just that will enormously improve almost any bout of depression. This is well-known. It's just not useful, because severely depressed people can't make themselves exercise. But maybe anxious people can be motivated to exercise. A win at many levels.
