Leggings With Resistance Bands on Caloric Expenditure During Exercise
This observational study is looking at how special exercise leggings with built-in resistance bands affect how many calories you burn during exercise. Researchers want to see if wearing these leggings (called SRB leggings) helps women burn more calories compared to regular leggings. They will measure calorie and fat burning while you do different exercises like walking, rowing, climbing, and cycling. This study is for healthy women between 18 and 50 years old with a BMI between 18.5 and 35, who exercise moderately or less than three times a week. The study's status is currently unclear.
- Study design
- This is an observational, randomized, controlled, and single-blind crossover study with a planned enrollment of 35 women.
- What's involved
- You would have three lab visits: one for screening and fitting (1 hour), and two separate visits (2 hours each) where you exercise while wearing different leggings.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Oxygen consumption and respiratory exchange ratio will be monitored during four 10-minute exercises and for 10 minutes after each exercise.

What this trial measures
- Calorie expenditure in kilocalories (kcal)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.
Oxygen consumption values will be used to calculate caloric expenditure (kcal) and fat oxidation (kcal) using the indirect calorimetry method.
- Fat oxidation in kilocalories (kcal)The oxygen consumption and respiratory exchange ratio 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.
Respiratory exchange ratio (RER) and oxygen consumption values will be used to calculate fat oxidation (kcal) using the indirect calorimetry method.
