Adolescents (12 to 17 Years Old) Clinical Trial
Official title:
Impact of Muscular Training Program on Body Composition of Overweight and Obese Teenagers: classi201c Cycling Exercise in Concentric Versus Eccentric
Nowadays, eccentric exercise can be realized in a dynamic way with an ergocycle which
permits eccentric (ECC) lower limbs contractions at a defined power output. With this type
of ergometer, O2 consumption (VO2) in ECC is three fold lower than in concentric (CON) for
the same power output. Consequently, ECC program could be used in chronic disorders with
limited capacities, such as obesity.
The investigators hypothesis that an eccentric training program, as it will induce higher
mechanical constraints, would improve body composition, especially by reducing fat mass.
This effect could be explained by an increased rest energy expenditure and a better
improvement in biological parameters (particularly lipid profile and insulin-resistance)
after ECC training (versus CON training).
This study aims to compare the modification of fat mass after an ECC program versus a CON
program at the same VO2.. The secondary goal is to assess the physiological mechanisms
involved in the modification of body composition.
40 obese adolescents will be randomized into 2 groups: CON or EXC. The patients of ECC group will follow habituation sessions (2 weeks) to avoid the secondary muscular effects of high intensity eccentric exercise. The training program will last 12 weeks for the two groups. Before and after, each subjects will participate to the following measurements: total and segmental body composition (DXA), aerobic capacities (maximal incremental exercise test, VO2max), muscular lower limbs strength (isometric and isokinetic dynamometer), rest energy expenditure (indirect calorimetry), biological parameters (lipid profile, insulin-resistance), physical activity (actimetry), food intakes and quality of life (questionnaires). ;
