Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: obese according to WHO criteria Diagnosis of mild pulmonary limitation Provide written informed consent and agree to comply with study procedures. Non-smoker

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Have moderate-to-severe pulmonary disease (e.g., moderate/severe COPD, uncontrolled asthma, or other significant respiratory conditions). Have severe cardiovascular disease (e.g., unstable angina, recent myocardial infarction within 6 months, uncontrolled hypertension). Have any musculoskeletal or neurological condition that limits safe participation in treadmill or cycle ergometer training. Are currently pregnant or planning pregnancy during the study period. Have participated in structured HIIT or other regular endurance training within the last 3 months. Have any condition or medication use that could significantly affect cardiorespiratory responses to exercise (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, beta-blocker therapy that cannot be safely adjusted). Are unable or unwilling to provide informed consent or follow study protocols.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
