NCT01107691

Brief Summary

This study is designed to investigate the effects of two levels of resistance weight training on body composition, energy expenditure, and energy intake in men and women. The weight training will take about one hour to complete. Participants will perform the training 3 days per week for 9 months in a private exercise room equipped with state of the art equipment and a personal trainer to help guide you through the exercises. The project lasts 21 months total with one follow-up visit 1-year from your last training date. You will be required to stay in the Lawrence area and train 3 day/week over the summer \& holidays.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Resting Metabolic Rate

    9 months

  • Muscular Strength

    9 months

  • Daily Energy Expenditure

    9 months

Study Arms (3)

Resistance training

EXPERIMENTAL

1 set of progressive resistance training per session

Other: Amount of resistance offered in training
