This study tests two short, efficient exercise programs – brief 'exercise snacks' and sprint interval training – to see which works better for reducing weight and improving health in overweight adults. If you are a young adult who is overweight and not very active, this trial may help you find a simpler way to get fit.
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 whether short bursts of exercise throughout the day (called 'exercise snacks') can improve blood vessel health and body composition in young adults who are overweight. If you qualify, you'd try these mini-workouts and we'd measure how your body responds.
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 doing very short, all-out sprints with active recovery (like walking or light jogging) improves your body's ability to perform high-intensity exercise better than resting between sprints. It is for healthy young adults who are not competitive athletes.
This study tests whether short 'exercise snacks' (brief bursts of activity throughout the day) can improve your heart and metabolic health. It's for people who are currently not very active and want to see if small, frequent exercise breaks can make a difference.
