Research has found that people who combine both aerobic exercise and weight-training regularly eat less overall than others. Those who do aerobics only typically eat less fat, but the researchers found no difference in consumption level of other food types. Those who only lifted weights didn't reduce the amount of food at all.
The key, suggests the research, is that the combination of both types of exercise may alter your metabolism to help you feel fuller and thereby eat less of everything.
