Study Comparing High Intensity Interval Training and Moderate Intensity Continuous Training on Fat Loss, Blood Markers, Sleep, and Quality of Life in Women Aged 18 to 45 With Obesity

What this Trial Is About

Obesity is a widespread, preventable health concern. This research aims to compare the effects of two types of exercisehigh intensity interval training and moderate intensity continuous trainingon young women with obesity. The study focuses on how these exercise methods influence body fat percentage, metabolic markers including serum omentin, leptin, and adiponectin, as well as sleep quality and overall life quality. Female participants aged 18 to 45 with a body mass index between 30 and 40 kgm are randomly assigned to one of two exercise groups. One group performs high intensity interval training on a bicycle ergometry device, involving intervals at increasing intensities over 8 weeks, five days per week. The other group engages in moderate intensity continuous cycling exercise for 30 minutes per session, also five days weekly for 8 weeks. Both exercise routines include warm-up and cool-down periods. Participants undergo blood tests at the start and end of the study to measure serum adipokine levels. Anthropometric measurements and body fat percentages are recorded, alongside questionnaires assessing sleep and quality of life. Data analysis will be conducted using statistical software. The study monitors outcomes over the 8-week exercise period to evaluate the effects of the two exercise types on obesity-related health indicators and wellbeing.
