Summary
This study is a randomized controlled trial, designed to evaluate the effect of structured physical exercise sessions on the spontaneous physical activity energy expenditure and caloric intake in overweight adults. The design employs a parallel three-group experimental arms: (1) a moderate exercise group (MEG); (2) a vigorous exercise group (VEG); and a control group (CG) without physical exercise sessions.
Conditions
Interventions
| Type | Name | Description |

| BEHAVIORAL | Moderate exercise | The training phase of the moderate exercise group (MEG) will consist of 4 sets of 10 minutes walking/running at moderate intensity, with 5 minutes walking at low intensity for recovery between sets |
| BEHAVIORAL | Vigorous exercise | The training phase of the vigorous exercise group (VEG) will consist of 4 sets of 10 minutes running at vigorous intensity, with 5 minutes walking at low intensity for recovery between sets |
