  • BMI > 50th percentile - < 98th percentile
  • No resistance training in the past 6 months.
  • Endurance training (running, cycling, swimming, walking for exercise etc) not more than 3 hr per week, as assessed by screening questionnaire.

About this study

Official title: Effects of Resistance Training With Milk Supplementation on Body Composition in Middle School Children

The investigators primary objective is to evaluate the effect of a 6 month (3 days/wk) supervised, progressive RT program with increased daily milk intake in untrained adolescents on measures of body composition and cardiovascular risk factors. The investigators hypothesize that milk supplementation will produce significantly greater favorable changes in all body composition measures compared with RT + carbohydrate and control.

Read the detailed description

We will recruit 150 healthy, adolescent middle school boys and girls (grades 7 through 9), BMI > 50th percentile < 98th percentile, who will participate in 6 months of supervised resistance training (3 days/wk) and will be randomized to one of 3 groups: RT + milk, RT + isocaloric carbohydrate, RT only (control). Both physical activity and diet outside the study protocol will be carefully monitored. Measurements will be completed at baseline 3 months and upon completion of the training protocol at 6 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Resistance Training with Milk Supplementation in AdolescentsOther

    On resistance training days, the RT+ milk group will receive milk (280kcals) immediately following exercise and milk at another time during the day. The RT+ juice group will receive fruit juice immediately following resistance exercise and juice again another time during the day. The RT+ water group will receive water following resistance exercise and water at another time during the day.

    On non training days, students in the RT+ milk group will receive milk. Students in the RT+ juice group will receive juice. The RT+ water group will receive water during the school day. On non-RT days, the total volume of milk, juice, or water will be split into two administration times during the school day.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Body Composition

    Changes in body composition will be evaluated by measuring the change in percent body fat, total fat mass, and total lean mass by DEXA

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Blood lipids, glucose, and insulin

    Blood samples will be collected for the purpose of measuring triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, glucose and insulin.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resistance Training with Milk Supplementation in Adolescents in people with Body Composition and Cardiovascular Risk Factors, run by University of Kansas at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Body Composition (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jun 2011.
