Interventions

  • Exercise leggings — OTHER
    The participants will wear two types of leggings (i.e., control leggings vs. leggings with shortened resistance bands) while performing the same exercise on two different days, respectively.

Study Details

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the impact of incorporating shortened resistance bands (SRB) into leggings on cardiovascular responses and caloric expenditure during exercise in young, healthy women. This study will employ a randomized, controlled, and double-blind crossover design involving four types of exercise: walking, climbing, rowing, and cycling. Participants will perform each type of exercise for 10 minutes while wearing either SRB leggings or leggings without SRB, with sessions on separate days and about 3 days apart. The cardiovascular and metabolic responses will be measured during and after the exercise.

35 participants (estimated)

Arms

  • Arm: Cross-over self-control group
    The current study utilizes the cross-over design. Therefore, only one group of participants will be studied using the self-control design. Each participant will undergo two conditions (control leggings vs. shortened resistance band leggings) at least one day apart.

Primary Outcome Measure

Calorie expenditure in kilocalories (kcal) [ Time Frame: The oxygen consumption will be monitored during four 10-minute exercises (i.e., rowing, walking, climbing and cycling) and the 10-minute recovery period following the completion of each 10-minute exercise. ]
