Detailed Description
Although the positive effects of continuous aerobic training are already well documented in the literature on health aspects. The weight loss induced by physical training is still very discrete when compared to other antiobesity means. Studies demonstrate an important variability in responses to physical exercise, indicating that individuals respond more or less to weight loss. Among these aspects, the factors that may influence exercise-induced weight loss have not yet been elucidated. Thus, the objective of the study is to analyze the influence of polymorphism in the genes FTO rs9939609 and PPARᵧ Pro12Ala, oxidative stress and systemic inflammation on changes in body composition and rest metabolism induced by continuous and continuous aerobic programs. Healthy individuals with overweight and / or obesity, aged 20-45 years, were randomly assigned to three groups: Continuous Aerobic (AC), Intermittent High Intensity Training (HIIT) and Control Group (CG). Groups (AC) and (HIIT) engaged in a 12-week program. Before the start of the program, at the sixth week and 48 hours after the intervention, they performed blood collections, ergospirometry, dual X-ray densitometry (DEXA), nutritional assessments. In addition, collection of buccal mucosa was performed for genotyping of polymorphisms studied. Initial differences between the groups, as well as between the dependent variables studied will be assessed using the two-way ANOVA test or its non-parametric equivalent. Correlation and regression tests will be performed to verify the influence of the independent variables and the magnitude of the exercise-induced weight loss, according to the normality of the data or differences between the standard deviations. The hypothesis tested is that genetic and physiological factors influence the weight loss independent of the training modality.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: High-intensity interval training The HIIT protocol is being performed with the cycling mode. The program consists of repeated intense explosions alternating with recovery intervals. The adaptation period consists of 4 shots of 20 seconds interspersed by 180 seconds interval (active recovery). From the first to the fourth week the volunteers performed from four to six race shots from 30 to 45s with intervals from 180s to 120s. From the fifth week until the end of the intervention, training takes place with six shots of 60s with a 120s interval between running shots. The work intensity for all sessions is above 95% of VO2max, with 30W of recovery. In addition, participants refer to number 19 on the Borg Scale. Sessions range from 12 to 36 minutes without heating and recovery. In total there are 12 weeks of training. |
Other: High-intensity interval training
HIIT training is being conducted on a three-day weekly frequency on a stationary bike. The protocol consisted of two weeks of adaptation with 12 weeks of training that alternated between sprints ranging from 30 s to 60 s (> 95% VO2max), and active recovery ranging from 180 s to 120 s (30 W on the bicycle).

| Experimental: Aerobic exercise moderate intensity The training protocol was started, with the sessions held in the open air. From the first to the fourth week, the volunteers gave sessions of 40 to 60 minutes, intensity in L1, three sessions / week. In the fifth week, the intensity was increased to the midpoint between L1 and half of L2, maintaining 60 minutes per session and frequency three times per week. From the sixth week, the weekly frequency increased to five days, with three supervised sessions and two unsupervised sessions, but with a smartphone application that recorded distance traveled and intensity. From the ninth week on, the weekly frequency was maintained and the intensity increased for L2. In supervised sessions, training intensity is also monitored by heart rate using a Polar heart rate monitor. |
Other: Aerobic exercise moderate intensity
The aerobic training is performed in a walking or running mode, with three weeks of adaptation (2x / wk - 20 to 30 minutes / session, <threshold 1) and 12 weeks of training (3 to 5x / wk - 40 to 60 minutes / session, with prescribed intensities between the anaerobic threshold - L1 and the respiratory compensation point - L2).
|
| Experimental: Control Group The control group attends stretching classes once a week and sessions lasting 60 minutes. At the end of the fifteen weeks (three weeks of adaptation and twelve weeks of training) of the study, these volunteers will be invited to engage in the aerobic training program regardless of their participation in the research. |
Other: Control Group
The control group is participating in lengthening classes to increase the adherence and control of the influencing variables. Classes are being held once a week for 60 minutes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Body Composition. The changes are being evaluated. [Before the intervention protocol and 48 hours immediately after the last exercise session.]
The procedure used for analysis is done using a Dual Energy Radiological Absortiometry (DEXA) equipment. The measurement of the body fat and fat free mass percentage measure is obtained by means of a full body scan using the LUNAR PRODIGY DF + 14.319 Radiation (Madison, WI) brand device, following manufacturer's protocols. The body mass is evaluated by means of a balance (Sanny®, São Bernardo do Campo - São Paulo, Brazil), with the volunteer barefoot and in orthostatic position using a Toledo scale sensitive to 100 g. The stature is evaluated by a stadiometer with a tape calibrated at 0.1 of the same mark. Waist circumference and other body perimeters are measured with a 0.1 cm Anthropometric Tape (Sanny®, São Bernardo do Campo - São Paulo, Brazil). Weight and height data are used to calculate BMI using the equation adopted by the WHO: BMI = (Weight / (Stature) 2).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Metabolic Rate of Rest. The changes are being evaluated. [Before the intervention protocol and 48 hours immediately after the last exercise session.]
The metabolic rate was measured using a gas spirometry analyzer. After having fasted from 8:00 pm the previous day, the volunteers were referred to the laboratory shortly after the awakening and were invited to remain seated in a thermoneutral environment for 30 minutes. For the next 30 minutes, VO2, VCO2, VE and RER were monitored until variations of no more than 10% occurred when five-minute intervals were compared. Once this steady state was obtained, these variables were recorded for five minutes. The calculation of the resting metabolic rate is done according to Macdonald (1990).
- Lipid and Glycemic Profile. The changes are being evaluated. [The collections will be done 24 hours before, in the 6th week and 48 hours after the end of the intervention.]
Collections of 10 ml of blood from the antecubital vein will be performed early in the morning, with fasting from 10 to 12 hours. The collections will be done 24 hours before, in the 6th week and after the intervention period. They will remain seated for 10 minutes for subsequent collection. Five milliliters of blood will be placed in EDTA-containing test tubes, protected from light and gently homogenized by inversion. The other 5ml will be placed in tubes without anticoagulants. They will then be centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 10 min. The plasma or serum will be separated, placed in eppendorf tubes and refrigerated at -20 ° C until analysis. All analyzes will be carried out using a commercial kit of the Labtest brand (Minas Gerais-Brazil). The analyzes will be carried out on serum samples using commercial Labtest kits (Minas Gerais, Brazil), following the manufacturer's recommendations and on a Labmax 240 premium automatic analyzer (Lagoa Santa-MG, Brazil).

Five milliliters of blood will be placed in test tubes containing EDTA and protected from light and the other 5ml will be placed in tubes without anticoagulants and centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 10 min. The plasma or serum will be separated, placed in eppendorf tubes and refrigerated at -20 ° C until analyzed by a commercial kit of the Labtest brand (Minas Gerais, Brazil). For this, 250 μl of sample will be added to KCl and incubated in a water bath (37 ° / 60 minutes). The mixture will be precipitated with 35% AA perchloric acid and centrifuged at 14,000 rpm for 10 minutes at 4 ° C. The supernatant will be transferred to eppendorfs and 400μl of 0.6% thiobarbituric acid is added and incubated at 95-100 ° C for 30minutes. The material will be read in a spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 532nm.
