"Optimal Exercise Timing for Heart Health in Individuals with Obesity"

A study from the University of Sydney suggests that getting the majority of daily physical activity during the evening offers the most health benefits for people with obesity, potentially reducing the risk of premature death and cardiovascular disease. Researchers found that exercising between 6 p.m. and midnight may help improve cardiometabolic regulation and blood pressure, particularly for those with insulin resistance. The study emphasizes the importance of frequent bouts of short, moderate to vigorous activities in the evening, but experts caution that further research is needed before revising public health advice on exercise timing.
