High-intensity interval training for women with central obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training can improve the severity of metabolic syndrome in women who carry extra weight around their belly. It may help you understand how exercise affects your overall health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 25 and 45 years old.

This trial tests whether high intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise) can help improve insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It may offer a way to manage symptoms through exercise.
This trial tests if ultrasound cavitation—a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves to break down fat—can help lower insulin resistance in women with central obesity (fat around the belly). It's a possible option if you have insulin resistance and are not taking diabetes medication.
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise) can improve heart health and fitness in young adults with obesity. You would participate in a supervised exercise program to see if it helps lower your risk of future health problems.
This trial studies whether a structured, short high-intensity exercise program can improve health markers related to weight, blood sugar, and blood fats in young adults with obesity. It may help you see if this kind of exercise leads to measurable health improvements.
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise) can improve health in sedentary young adults with obesity. If you are between 20 and 35, have a BMI of 30 to 35, and do little to no exercise, this trial may be a good fit.
This study compares two different exercise programs to see which one helps young women with obesity lose weight more effectively. If you are a woman aged 18–45 with a BMI between 30 and 40 and you are not on certain medications, this trial may be a good fit for you.
