"Weekend Workouts: An Effective Strategy for Weight Loss, Study Finds"

A new study suggests that exceeding weekly exercise recommendations over two days, such as the weekend, can effectively reduce fat, challenging the notion that daily workouts are necessary. The research found no difference in fat reduction between weekend warriors and those who exercise regularly throughout the week, as long as the weekend workouts are of higher intensity and longer duration. The study, which used an objective body scan, revealed that both weekend warriors and regular exercisers had lower levels of belly fat and overall body fat compared to those who did not exercise regularly.
