Unexpected 75-Minute Weekly Walking Regimen Reduces Abdominal Fat in 315 Individuals

A randomized study conducted over four months has revealed that condensing a full week’s worth of interval walking into a single session can be as effective as distributing it over three days. Researchers from the University of Hong Kong assigned 315 overweight individuals with central obesity to undergo interval training once a week, three times a week, or to be part of a control group. Each exercise group engaged in 75 minutes of activity weekly. After 16 weeks, both groups demonstrated reductions in overall body fat mass, body fat percentage, and waist size, alongside improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness. The researchers suggest that this once-a-week approach presents a viable alternative for those with limited time availability.
