This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a specific type of exercise called high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can improve liver health in people with fatty liver disease and excess weight. Researchers will also evaluate a tool called FibroScan, which uses sound waves to check liver health without a needle. The study hopes to show that this exercise program can improve your liver even without major weight loss.
Many people develop fatty liver disease linked to metabolic problems like diabetes and obesity, but there aren't many proven treatments beyond lifestyle changes. This trial exists to determine whether this specific exercise program can actually improve liver health and whether FibroScan is a useful tool to monitor improvements over time.

If you are selected, you will be randomly placed into either an exercise group or a non-exercise control group. If you are in the exercise group, you will do high-intensity interval training for 8 weeks — that means 2 to 3 supervised 30-minute sessions per week with a physical therapist, alternating between intense effort and easier recovery periods. Both groups will have blood tests, body measurements, and liver scans before and after the 8 weeks to see if the exercise helps your liver and overall health.
