The new study reveals that both weekly exercise patterns—whether spread out or concentrated, as weekend warriors—offer significant health benefits, debunking the myth of the 'ideal' exercise schedule.
Analyzing over 89,000 participants, researchers found that dedicating at least 150 minutes weekly to physical activity significantly reduced the risk of over 200 diseases across various conditions.
Weekend warriors, who complete their exercise in just one or two days, showed comparable health benefits to regular exercisers when it came to reducing cardiometabolic risks.
The research suggests a flexibility in exercise habits, indicating that individual preferences for timing and distribution don't compromise the health advantages associated with regular physical activity.
