Design
Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: The primary aim is to define, through a randomized controlled approach, the relative effectiveness of up to 10-20 consecutive sessions of either whole body cryostimulation (WBC), high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT), or their combination (WBC and HIIT) in improving the metabolic status of overweight subjects. The effects will be assessed, at different time-points, in terms of insulin sensitivity and modification in the profile of hormones regulating the energy metabolism (adipokines, myokines, bone-derived hormones) and the inter-organ cross-talk.Masking: Single (Participant)Masking Description: 4 groups of obese patients will take part in the study. Qualification for the test is insulin resistance, abdominal obesity, lack of physical activity, lack of cold sensitivity.Primary Purpose: Prevention

Description

Secondary aims are: To assess the influence of WBC and HIIT on insulin sensitivity and establish the role of myokines (irisin and IL-6) in this regulation. To find the answer for the question if the rise of mentioned myokines cause a decrease of authophagy protein HMGB1. To characterize potential ef...

Secondary aims are: To assess the influence of WBC and HIIT on insulin sensitivity and establish the role of myokines (irisin and IL-6) in this regulation. To find the answer for the question if the rise of mentioned myokines cause a decrease of authophagy protein HMGB1. To characterize potential effectiveness of these intervention protocols on bone and energy metabolisms by stimulating in vitro cultured normal human osteoblastic primary cells and ?-pancreatic cells with sera obtained from patients at different time points during treatment. To establish, which procedure is most effective at improving insulin sensitivity: training or training supported with WBC treatment, which factors modify this response (body composition or physical capacity of subjects) To establish if training supported with WBC treatment impairs adaptive changes of trained subjects To determine the potential beneficial effects of the intervention protocols on the metabolic homeostasis, and assess how long these changes are maintained over a period of four weeks or three months.
