Brief Summary

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

Exercise is an effective strategy to manage juvenile obesity; however this ideal exercise training mode is still unclear. In this study, the investigators compared the health-related effects of high intensity interval training versus endurance training in obese children.
