Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Obesity established in adolescence strongly predicts obesity for the remainder of adult life, and the consequences are potentially devastating, characterized by a lifelong burden of co-morbid conditions and depression. This study will provide an exposure to physical activity that is designed to teach and empower sedentary college age individuals to become physically active. The investigators will evaluate whether such exposure can result in lasting changes in exercise behavior and body composition. The study will also provide a better understanding of the genetic factors that influence persistence in an exercise program and that influence whole body response to exercise training. Altering the course of obesity in adolescence has the potential to reduce the adult prevalence of obesity and consequently attenuate the public health burden of overweight and obesity in the investigators population.
