The role of metabolic rate and substrate utilization in the maintenance of body weight, body composition and insulin sensitivity
Obesity treatment requires approaches that target the reduction of body weight and fat mass. The improvement of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), metabolic flexibility and insulin sensitivity also contribute towards reducing obesity-associated risk factors. While energy restriction alone results in s...
