Exercise and fat loss in young women with overweight or obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study compares two types of exercise (short bursts of intense activity vs. moderate continuous activity) to see which is better for fat loss in young women who have overweight or obesity. The exercises have the same total energy used, so the results can show which type might be more helpful for weight management.
