Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Impact of resistance training in prepubertal children with obesity focusing mostly in changes in body composition and markers of insulin resistance.

Hypothesis is that this will show positive changes in this randomized controlled trial.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

24 obese prepubertal obese children randomized to either resistance training program or usual care for 12 weeks. Baseline blood profiles and DEXA scans done before and after 12 weeks of training with the help of kinesiology graduates from Concordia University kinesiology department.
