Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the different effect of morning and evening exercise training in individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The main question it aims to answer is:

• Is morning or evening exercise better for the treatment of NAFLD?

Participants will follow a supervised exercise training program for three months with either morning or evening training and the effect on liver health will be assessed. Researchers will compare the morning to the evening exercise group to see if one training timepoint is more effective than the other in reducing the amount of fat in the liver and improving liver health.
