Studies in mice provide compelling evidence that feeding/fasting cycles can be altered to produce beneficial effects on weight loss and cardiometabolic health markers in the absence of caloric restriction. Limited research in subjects with metabolic syndrome (MetS) suggests that this feeding paradigm may also apply to human health when combined with an exercise training program, but more research is needed to confirm this hypothesis.
This project will determine the independent and combined effects of high-intensity interval training and time-restricted eating on cardiometabolic factors among overweight or obese patients with MetS.
The intervention period will be sixteen weeks. Before and after the intervention, MetS components (i.e., MetS Z score), body composition, and physical fitness will be measured and compared between groups who are doing either high-intensity interval training, time-restricted eating, both high-intensity interval training and time-restricted eating, or who are in a control group. Physical activity, diet, sleep quality, and intervention adherence will also be measured.

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High-Intensity Interval Training | Behavioral | Three weekly, supervised exercise sessions with high intensity. Each session will last for 45 minutes. The intervention period will be sixteen weeks. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Metabolic Syndrome Z score | MetS z score will be used to assess the continuous rather than dichotomous (have/not haveMetS) evolution of each MetS component into a compound score. We will calculate the Z score as the difference between the subjects and the threshold value divided by the group standard deviations for each MetS criterion. | Baseline and after 16 weeks of intervention |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Blood lipids profile | Serum concentrations (in mg per dL) of triglycerides, total colesterol, high density lipoprotein after 8-hour fasting | Baseline and after 16 weeks of intervention |
| Glycemia |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Diet intake | Food diary | Baseline and week 8 of intervention |
| Daily physical activity | Measurement of daily steps using pedometers | Baseline and week 8 of intervention |
