An interventional study of 1 x 4 minute interval and 4 x 4 minutes Intervals in Healthy Subjects, sponsored by Norwegian University of Science and Technology. Completed at 1 site in Norway. Open to male participants aged 18 Years to 50 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-03-30.
Sponsored by Norwegian University of Science and Technology · Not applicable, Interventional, and Prevention
It has been reported that obese individuals are seated 2 ½ hour more than lean individuals and that non exercise thermo genesis (NEAT) may vary with as much as 2000 Kcal/day between equal size people due to different occupational and leisure time activities. The primary aim of the study is to investigate if 10 weeks of exercise training increase NEAT in sedentary men.
Subject will be randomized to three different training intervention, with 3 exercise session each week for 10 weeks. NEAT will be measured using an activity sensor and recorded over a 7 day period both before and after training.
Norwegian University of Science and Technology is the lead sponsor of 487 studies on the registry; 52 are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
Exclusion Criteria:
4 x 4 minutes of high intensity intervals at 90-95% of maximal heart rate separated by 3 minutes of active brakes in between at 70% of maximal heart rate.
Behavioral: 4 x 4 minutes Intervals
1 x 4 minutes intervals at 90-95% of HR max
Behavioral: 1 x 4 minute interval
47 minutes of Moderate continuous Training
Behavioral: Moderate continuous Training
1 x 4 minutes of high intensity intervals at 90-95% of maximal heart rate
4 x 4 minutes of high intensity intervals at 90-95% of maximal heart rate separated by 3 minutes of active brakes in between at 70% of maximal heart rate.
47 minutes of Moderate continuous Training
nonexercise activity thermogenesis
NEAT Will be measured using an activity sensor. Physical activity is recorded over a 7 day period. The energy equivalent of each of these activities is determined. The time spent in each activity is then multiplied by equivalent for the activity. The values are then summed to derive an estimate of NEAT.
Time frame: Baseline and 10 weeks
Cardiopulmonary maximal oxygen uptake
The secondary aims are to investigate the changes in maximal oxygen uptake, heart function, and body composition in response to interval training
Time frame: Baseline and 10 weeks
