Role of Mechanical Load on Metabolic Exercise Adaptations in Response to Weight Loss in Obese Adolescents: The POWELL Study
Sponsor: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
Summary
While interdisciplinary weight loss intervention have been shown successful among adolescents with obesity, a weight regain is most of the time observed within the following weeks or months. The aim of the present project will be to better identify the independent role played by both the metabolic and mechanical load and their modification during weight loss, on the energy expenditure and energy metabolism of adolescents with obesity.
