In another, they started the day with 30 minutes of moderate walking on a treadmill.

另一组实验中，他们一起床便先在跑步机上进行30分钟的中速步行锻炼。

The third experiment called for six 5-minute microbouts of moderate intensity walking every hour.

第三组实验中，参与者被要求每小时进行六次五分钟的适度步行活动。

The researchers monitored their stress hormone levels, and had participants rate their moods, energy, fatigue, and appetites throughout the day.

在实验过程中，研究者一直监测他们的压力荷尔蒙水平，并让参与者对他们一天下来的心情、能量、疲劳感和食欲进行自我测评。

These experiments revealed a number of benefits linked to the 5-minute activity sessions.

这些实验告诉我们，五分钟的短时运动确实可以带来许多益处。

The researchers also found that the effects of the microbouts surpassed those associated with an early workout, as the benefits of that type of activity wore off after some time.

研究者还发现，早晨集中运动的效果远低于短时运动，因其效用会在一段时间后逐渐消失。

Participants showed an increase in energy and vigor levels, along with "improved mood, decreased feelings of fatigue, and affected appetite", the authors noted.

参与者的能量值和活力都有所提高，同时“心情变好了，疲劳感有所减缓，对食欲也有一定影响”，文章作者写道。
