The paper summarises: “In conclusion, in contrast to our hypothesis, a lower amount of sedentary time or more breaks in sedentary time were not associated with reduced liver fat content or insulin resistance.
“However, in addition to the total amount of daily moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MPVA), timing of MVPA during the day was associated with reduced insulin resistance: performing most MVPA in the afternoon or evening was associated with up to 25 percent reduced insulin resistance compared with an even distribution of MVPA during the day.
“These results suggest that timing of physical activity throughout the day is relevant for the beneficial effects of physical activity on inulin sensitivity.
“Further studies should assess whether timing of physical activity is indeed important for the occurrence of type 2 diabetes, taking into account the influence of chronotype.”
