Interrupting sitting with moderate-intensity physical activity breaks improves cognitive processing speed in adults with overweight and obesity: Findings from the SITLess pilot randomized crossover trial
Interrupting sitting with short MPA bouts can enhance some aspects of cognitive processing in adults with OW/OB. Future studies are needed to better understand behavioral responses to interrupting prolonged sitting with MPA bouts and the underlying mechanisms.
