Effects of moderate-intensity combination exercise on increase adiponectin levels, muscle mass, and decrease fat mass in obese women

Randomized Controlled Trial

Human

In a study, obese young women who did moderate exercise like walking and lifting weights for four weeks saw their adiponectin levels jump up a lot, while those who didn’t exercise saw almost no change. This means exercise helped their bodies produce more of this helpful fat-burning hormone.
