Among the 705 studies in Motor Activity with a site in Canada, from their registry updates:
Resistance training (RT) is important for building and maintaining healthy muscles. An exercise frequency called "exercise snacks" involves short bursts of exercise throughout the day (\~5-15 minutes), but no studies have examined a gym-based RT exercise snack program. The invetigators will randomize 40 participants into one of two groups for 10 weeks: the control group will complete two full-body workouts per week (standard-frequency) and the experimental group will complete 10 mini-workouts per week (high-frequency). Muscle hypertrophy (size) and strength will be measured before and after the exercise program to determine if the participants had the same or different results.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Weight in kilograms divided by height in metres squared. Example: 70 kg and 1.75 m gives 70 ÷ (1.75 × 1.75) ≈ 22.9.
What counts as overweight or obesity differs between countries (some use lower cut-offs), so go by the range the study states.

Behavioral: Two sessions per week of resistance training
Behavioral: 10 sessions per week of resistance training
Full-body resistance training consisting of 10 sets per week for all major muscle groups with progressive overload in a gym-based setting. Training at an exercise frequency of 10 brief sessions per week (around 8-12 minutes per session).
Full-body resistance training consisting of 10 sets per week for all major muscle groups with progressive overload in a gym-based setting. Training at an exercise frequency of two sessions per week (around 45-60 minutes per session).
Change in Total Body Skeletal Muscle Mass Measured using the D3-Creatine Dilution Method
Time frame: From enrolment (Week 1) to the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12)
Change in Total Body Muscle Size Measured as Cross-sectional Area using Muscle Ultrasound Imaging
Muscle ultrasound imaging will be conducted on one randomly selected side of the body (left or right) for each participant. Scans will be analyzed to determine the cross-sectional area of the following seven muscles: rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, biceps brachii, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, triceps brachii, and hamstring group (semitendinosus, semimembranosus, and long head of biceps femoris).
Time frame: From enrolment (Week 1) to the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12)
Change in Muscle Strength Measured as the One-Repetition Maximum of Back Squat and Bench Press
One-repetition maximums will be measured using a Quantum Synchro Smith Machine.
Time frame: From enrolment (Week 1) to the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12)
Change in Skeletal Muscle Power Measured at Various Relative Loads for Back Squat and Bench Press
At enrolment (Week 1), power will be measured using a Quantum Synchro Smith Machine at 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, and 80% of the participant's initial one-repetition maximum (1RM) for back squat and bench press. At the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12), if a participant's 1RM has increased by less than 25%, power will be measured at the same relative loads. If a participant's 1RM has increased by 25-49%, power will be measured at 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90% of the participant's initial 1RM (in this case, 90% of the participant's initial 1RM would not exceed 80% of the participant's post-training 1RM). If a participant's 1RM has increased by 50% or greater, power will be measured at 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% of the participant's initial 1RM (in this case, 100% of the participant's initial 1RM would not exceed 80% of the participant's post-training 1RM).
Time frame: From enrolment (Week 1) to the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12)
Participant Satisfaction with the Exercise Program
Participant satisfaction with the exercise program will be measured using a modified Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (subscales of "Interest/Enjoyment", "Percieved Competence", "Effort/Importance", and "Value/Usefullness").
Time frame: At the end of the exercise training phase (Week 12)
Plan to share: No — The dataset will contain potentially identifying information (age, height, and weight) of people in a relatively small geographic area, so individual participant data will not be shared with other researchers.

Started Aug 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jun 2027, 10 months after the start.
Of 5,147 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Motor Activity, half reached primary completion within 17 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 36. This study's planned 10 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 5,207 studies reached it within 17 months; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 36.
