☆ 'Weekend warriors' who don't exercise during the week can still lose weight, research suggests
  + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Exercising on the weekends may help you lose weight just as much as weekday workouts. AdvertisementYou don't have to hit the gym every day to burn fat and lose weight — getting some exercise on the weekends works just as well, new research suggests. Current exercise guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes a week of moderate exercise (like brisk walking, light biking, or household chores) or 75 minutes a week of vigorous exercise (such as playing sports, hiking, or heavy lifting). Longer, less frequent exercise sessions may be useful for people who want to lose weight but struggle to find time for a workout on a busy schedule. Rucking, an increasingly popular workout style that involves carrying a weighted pack, can also be an efficient way to lose weight while building muscle at the same time.

☆ Lose that belly by working out extra hard on weekends, study says

“Our results indicated that there was no difference between the weekend warrior pattern and regularly active pattern in abdominal and general adiposity (fat),” Zhang said in an email. The average weekend warrior workout was of higher intensity and longer duration than weekday workouts by people in the study, Zhang said. In fact, weekend warriors in the study spent 147.6 minutes — almost the entire recommendation for a week — in each exercise session over the two-day period. That perseverance paid off when it came to belly fat, the study found. “On a high level, this study reaffirms the old adage about physical activity and health: any activity is better than no activity, said Tchang, who was not involved in the research.
