Heart rate monitor study for overweight young adults
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study checks how well heart rate monitors work for overweight or obese young adults who don't exercise much. You may be able to join if you are not very active and don't have certain health problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a young adult with a body mass index (BMI) of 25 or higher, meaning you are considered overweight or obese.
- You have a low level of physical activity (less than 600 MET-minutes per week, which is like less than 150 minutes of moderate exercise).
- You are willing to sign a consent form to participate.
- You do not drink 10 or more alcoholic drinks per week.
- You have no physical issues that prevent you from exercising safely.
- You do not have a chronic disease like diabetes or heart disease.
- You answer 'no' to all questions on the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q+), meaning it's safe for you to be active.

This study aims to track real-world data on heart and metabolic health protection. It includes people 18 years or older with conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, abnormal cholesterol, or high uric acid.
This study tests whether short bursts of exercise throughout the day can improve heart vessel function and body composition in people aged 18–35 who are overweight. Researchers will measure changes in blood vessel health and body fat distribution.
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 study looks at how the heart and metabolism work together during exercise in healthy adults. It uses special tests (including a heart catheterization during exercise and an MRI) to understand normal heart function and reserve capacity.
