Background
The evidence supporting the benefits of early exercise in post-bariatric patients is growing. This study analyzed the effects of early exercise (1-week post-bariatric surgery) on body composition in patients with overweight and obesity 1 month after surgery.
Methods
Thirty patients (age 36.5 ± 12.3 [range, 18–65] years; body mass index...

Both high-intensity interval training (HIT) and moderate-intensity training (MIT) reduce VAT effectively; however, HIT might mediate greater VAT loss in females.

While the topic is important for improving patients' metabolic health, the study has several limitations. ...
