I believe this is wrong in general. The following research, for example, shows at least one form of exercise likely reduces hunger:

I suspect it depends on the kind of exercise.
- paulpauper 3y agoI can attest exercise is not that helpful. Over summer of 2022 I did 15 days strait of hiking, 33,000 ft worth of elevation gain. Weight loss: 0 pounds. I lost 6 pounds over the following 2 weeks. cause: mild covid. It was Covid that finally broke my plateau, not exercise.
