Daily exercise lessens many of the harmful physiological effects of short-term overeating and inactivity, according to The Journal of Physiology.
Energy surplus occurs when a person consumes more calories than they burn which can have a negative impact on your health. The research shows that a daily burst of exercise generates vast physiological benefits even when you consume thousands of calories more than you are burning.
But exercise clearly does a lot more than simply reduce the energy surplus.

However, these negative effects were markedly less in those who exercised during that same period.
