Brief Summary

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

The main purpose of this study is to compare the impact of concurrent high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and whole-body electromyostimulation exercise (WB-EMS) or low-volume conventional strength training (CST) on the cardiometabolic risk profile, overall physical fitness (cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular strength), body composition, inflammatory markers and subjective health outcomes after a 12-week intervention trial in overweight individuals at increased cardiometabolic risk. Furthermore, this study aims to investigate the influence of intra-session exercise order on all outcomes.

HIIT + WB-EMS

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) combined with whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) Sequence of application: HIIT - WB-EMS

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

HIIT + WB-EMS

Intervention Type OTHER

12-week supervised exercise program consisting of ergometer-based high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS).

HIIT: 5x1 min at 85-95% HRmax divided by low-intensity recovery periods. WB-EMS: Simulanteous stimulation of all major muscle groups with dedicated individual intensity.

2 exercise sessions per week. Order of application: HIIT - WB-EMS. Additionally, participants receive individualized nutritional counseling.
