Is Morning Exercise More Effective?

The video discusses a study on the timing of exercise and its effects on weight loss. Conducted on less than 100 overweight or obese young adults, the study was not a randomized control trial. Participants were grouped based on their exercise timing: early, midday, late, and sporadic.
