Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Multimodal Lifestyle Program

The multimodal lifestyle program will utilize intensive behavioral therapy with structured exercise training and nutritional counseling. The main objective of the structured exercise training is to improve cardiorespiratory fitness.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Multimodal Lifestyle Program

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The multimodal lifestyle program will utilize intensive behavioral therapy with structured exercise training and nutritional counseling.

Waitlist Control

The waitlist control group will be asked to maintain their current exercise and dietary habits for the 10-week study period. Upon providing study endpoint data at week 10, control group participants will be offered a 4-week multimodal lifestyle program that is similar to the intervention group.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Exclusion Criteria

* Engaging in ≥3 purposeful exercise sessions per week, on average, over the past 12 weeks
* Significant purposeful weight loss (\>11 kg) within the past 12 weeks
* Current use of medications or devices for the purpose of weight loss
* Metabolic or bariatric surgery within the last year
* Cardiovascular, respiratory, or musculoskeletal disease that would prohibit participation in an exercise and weight loss program
* Currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant with the next 12 weeks
* Psychiatric disorders or conditions that would preclude participation in the study intervention
* Any other condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, may impede testing of the study hypothesis or make it unsafe to engage in the study
