Separate Effects of Exercise Amount and Intensity on Adipose Tissue and Skeletal Muscle Mass in Adults with Abdominal Obesity

Objective To determine the effects of exercise amount (kilocalories per session) and intensity (percent of maximal oxygen consumption [% VO 2 peak]) on adipose tissue (AT) and skeletal muscle (SM) in adults with abdominal obesity. Methods Participants ( n = 103; 52.7 ± 7.6 years) were randomized to the following groups: control; low‐amount, low‐intensity exercise (180 kcal/session [women] and 300 kcal/session [men] at 50% VO 2 peak);...
