About this trial

This is an interventional supportive care trial for Overweight and Obesity focused on measuring Exercise Program

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 44 Years (Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Premenopausal adult females over the age of 18 and under the age of 45 with a BMI greater than or equal to 25 and a waist circumference greater than or equal to 35 inches.
  • No medical contraindications to participation in an exercise program including major medical illnesses (i.e. cardiovascular disease, stroke, cancer, etc.)
  • Ability to provide informed consent
  • Willingness and ability to participate in an interval training in-person group fitness exercise program 3x/week for 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Adults unable to consent or mini-mental score less than 18.
  • Individuals who are not yet adults (infants, children, teenagers)
  • Pregnant women
  • Post-menopausal women
  • Do not speak English
  • Prisoners
  • Subjects on medicines (serum glucose, insulin, weight loss medicines, beta-blockers) and having any medical pre-conditions that would interfere with one's capacity to exercise.
  • Answer "Yes" to any of the questions on the Pre-Activity Screening Questionnaire (PASQ)

vascular marker of cardiac risk will be reported as MAP (mmHg) as measured using SphygmoCor
Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT) content
Anthropometric measure will be reported as VAT content as measured by noninvasive direct segmental multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance body composition analyzer
Total Adiposity
Anthropometric measure will be reported as Total Adiposity as measured by noninvasive direct segmental multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance body composition analyzer
Aerobic Fitness
Aerobic Fitness level as measured by the 20 meter shuttle run
