Healthy Clinical Trial - The Benefits of a High-intensity Interval

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

A 12-week school-based high-intensity interval training intervention, with 8 classes of year 7 students randomly allocated to either intervention or control group. The interval training sessions will last for 6 to 10 minutes and will be delivered 5 times per week. Outcome variables will be physical activity, body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, bone health, executive function, mental wellbeing, and academic performance, which will be measured pre- and post-intervention and two months after the intervention has been completed.

Clinical Trial Description

The purpose of this study is to: 1) evaluate the effectiveness of a 12-week school-based HIIT intervention on cardiorespiratory fitness (primary outcome), physical activity, body composition, muscular strength, bone health, executive function, wellbeing, enjoyment, affect, self-efficacy and academic performance among 12-13-year-old adolescents; 2) to examine the changes of these outcomes following a two-month unstructured summer holiday after the study has been completed; 3) to conduct a process evaluation for the study. The study is a 12-week high-intensity interval training intervention, which is 6 to 10-minute in length and will be delivered 5 times per week among year 7 adolescents, at the start of physical education and physical activity lessons. We will examine the effectiveness of this intervention on outcomes, such as body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular health, bone health, cognitive function, mental wellbeing, and academic performance. In addition, The investigators will evaluate the fitness changes between school days (structured day) and a two-month summer holiday (unstructured days). This will be achieved by collecting data at three timepoints: pre- and post-intervention and after a 2-month (summer holiday) following the completion of the intervention. The high-intensity interval training includes resistance-based exercises, such as jumping jacks, high knees, burpees, squat jumps, lunge jumps, and mountain climbers. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
