How were they able to rule out the effects of lockdown? People exercised way less, put on more weight, and were on devices way more. All of these symptoms would be effected by lockdown and the stress from it.

Not everyone was locked down, many still had to go to work, many excersised at home more or ate healthier, and many still had social lives. You can account for those other factors by making sure to include participants who didn't have those other factors.

I never said everyone didn’t exercise, the vast majority didn’t. Gyms were closed. Where in the study did they account for these factors?

I was just postulating on how you could account for them given the population, though I too was unable to find the selection criteria specifics in what is posted here.
