Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to improve the understanding of the effects of weight loss on the lungs in older adults. Different types of tests to understand the effects of the EMPOWER interventions on lung function will be administered.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a randomized clinical trial of the effects of structured aerobic exercise and a sedentary behavior intervention during weight loss on respiratory function. Site will enroll 150 older (65-85 years), obese (BMI=30-45 kg/m2), sedentary men and women from EMPOWER. EMPOWER is a 3-group design where participants will undergo a 9-month weight loss (WL) intervention (6-mo intensive phase and 3-mo reduced contact phase), followed by a 9-month self-managed follow-up phase with minimal contact. The diet element of the interventions is identical across groups, but groups differ by activity intervention: 1) moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (WL+EX); 2) intervening on SB (WL+SitLess); or 3) (WL+EX+SitLess) ;
