What this study is about

The study compares the impact of isokinetic resistance training (RT) -induced neuromuscular adaptation following an 8-week short ECC ISO RT and CON ISO RT among obese, untrained women. The main question it aims to answer is: 1\. Does exercise-induced neuromuscular adaptation following progressive short ECC ISO RT, more effectively than CON ISO RT, among obese, untrained women? Researchers will compare drug ECCISO RT to a CONISO RT to see if ECCISO RT is more effective in inducing neuro-muscular adaptations in obese, untrained women. Participants will: 1. Train on isokinetic ECC or CON for 8 weeks 2. Visit the clinic twice for baseline and post tests

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
