Do you find yourself not having time to exercise daily or at all during the workweek? Do you find it easier to dedicate time to exercising on the weekends? If so, you are not alone.

The study looked at over 89,000 men and women, who wore a wrist activity monitor for one week and were followed for 6.3 years.
