Abstract in brief

  • Recent research highlights that exercise goes beyond just burning calories; it significantly influences mitochondrial function, muscle-derived chemical messengers, and can reverse epigenetic changes.
  • This review discusses how the balance of fuel sources used during exercise—measurable by various techniques—affects metabolism, particularly in relation to obesity and physical inactivity.
  • The identified intensity, known as LIPOXmax, is crucial for optimizing fat oxidation during exercise and has been linked to numerous health benefits, such as reduced fat mass, improved insulin sensitivity, and lower inflammation, making it accessible and effective for sedentary individuals.

La importancia de la constancia aún con el ejercicio ligero/moderado para "quemar grasa" y mejores niveles de glucosa en sangre. La dieta es fundamental, pero hay que movernos, somos animales nómadas, no lo olvidemos. https://t.co/Tyl1xz5ycI
