JOURNAL ARTICLES:
Empirical evaluation of physical activity recommendations for weight control in women. (Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS:: Findings support current recommendations that more activity may be needed to prevent weight regain than to prevent weight gain. Including some higher-intensity activity may also be advisable for weight-loss maintenance."
Exercise effect on weight and body fat in men and women. (Obesity (Silver Spring). 2007) "DISCUSSION: These data support the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Institute of Medicine guidelines of 60 min/d of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity."
Exercise increases the proportion of fat utilization during short-term consumption of a high-fat diet. (Am J Clin Nutr. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: Amounts of exercise consistent with the Institute of Medicine's recommendations reduce the time required to match fat oxidation to a change in the percentage of fat in the diet. Because short-term consumption of high-fat diets is thought to contribute to excess fat accumulation, regular exercise should be protective and should help maintain a healthy body composition."
Exercise induced suppression of acylated ghrelin in humans. (J Appl Physiol. 2007) "These findings demonstrate that plasma acylated ghrelin concentration and hunger are suppressed during running."
Long-term weight losses associated with prescription of higher physical activity goals. Are higher levels of physical activity protective against weight regain? (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2007) "Participants who reported continuing to engage in high levels of exercise maintained a significantly larger weight loss."
Maintaining Vigorous Activity Attenuates 7-yr Weight Gain in 8340 Runners. (Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2007) "CONCLUSION:: As they aged, men and women gained less weight in proportion to their levels of sustained vigorous activity. This long-term beneficial effect is in addition to the acute weight loss that occurs with increased activity."
