Prescription of Step Counts for Targeted Changes in Body Composition and Cardiometabolic Risk in Overweight/Obese Adults
NCT07221279
This study is recruiting at 1 US site in 1 state, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
The prevalence of overweight and obesity remains epidemic in the United States, with some of the highest rates seen in older adults. While this phenomenon is certainly multifactorial, a good deal of evidence suggests that insufficient physical activity (PA) contributes significantly. Pilot data recently collected in a laboratory indicates a strong, inverse relationship between daily step counts and body fatness and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) factors when step counts are expressed relative to fat mass in young adults.
