Improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) contribute to reductions in visceral and estimated liver fat over the long term.
Enhancing CRF should be a focus in interventions aimed at reducing visceral fat.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
The improvement in CRF contributes to visceral and estimated liver fat losses over the long term.
Why this rating
The study design supports the link between CRF and fat loss.
