About

The goal of this clinicaltrial is to assess and compare isokinetic performance, surface electromyography, laboratory parameters, and cardiorespiratory function both before and after engaging in vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity(VILPA) within a healthy population.

The main question it aims to answer is:

[1] Does VILPA yield effective outcomes?

Throughout the course of the trial, participants will engage in a simulated regimen of vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity for a duration of 8 weeks. The efficacy of the exercise protocol will be quantified and evaluated through the utilization of a wearable device.

Enrollment: 40 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Healthy Adults
2. No exercise habits (more than 3 months)

Exclusion criteria

1. Exercising ≥ 3 times per week;
2. the presence of chronic diseases, such as hypertension, hyperglycemic states, etc;
3. have conducted an exercise program in the past three months.

Trial design

40 participants in 1 patient group

intervention group

Description:

The intervention measures encompass the implementation of simulated vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity for all participants. The specific exercise regimen involves performing rope jumping activities three times a day, with each session aimed at surpassing the exercise threshold (not conducted in a continuous manner), where the heart rate should exceed 160 beats per minute. This routine will be undertaken five times a week, continuously for a span of 8 weeks.

Treatment:

Other: Vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity
