Physical activity and hormonal regulation of appetite: sex differences and weight control

Todd A Hagobian et al. Exerc Sport Sci Rev. 2010 Jan.

Abstract

Physical activity is an important contributor to regulation of energy balance and body composition. In this article, we separate the impact of exercise from the confounding influence of energy imbalance and highlight sex differences in hormonal and appetite responses to physical activity. The evolving story may influence our thinking regarding the use of physical activity to manage body composition.
