About this study
The purpose of this study is to assess the energy expenditure and intensity of a High Intensity Functional Training (HIFT) session in overweight and obese adult men and women.
Read the detailed description
High Intensity Functional Training (HIFT), which alternates short periods of intense exercise using varied, multiple-joint movements, with less-intense active recovery periods, may offer an attractive, time efficient alternative to traditional aerobic exercise. Variations of HIFT such as Cross Fit, home workout videos (ie.P90x and Insanity), and boot-camp style group exercise classes have become increasingly popular.
The cardiovascular benefits of HIFT have been demonstrated; however, by doing this study researchers hope to get more information regarding the potential effectiveness of HIFT for weight management, such as the actual level of energy expenditure and exercise intensity elicited by a HIFT session.

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?
Energy expenditure measured using indirect calorimetry (time frame: Energy expenditure will be obtained across a 2 week period after each of 3 exercise sessions). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02526108, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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.
