简要总结
Obesity is one of the common public problems that its prevalence increase incredibly in the last three decades in KSA. Thirty obese males aged 20 to 39 years will participate in the study. The participants will be evaluated on skinfold thickness, percent of body fat, lipid profile, and exercise capacity. All participants will perform a circuit training of aerobic and resistance exercises and be instructed to follow a low carbohydrate diet for eight weeks.

Cardiometabolic index
时间窗: 12 weeks
High-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, and total cholesterol will be evaluated through a blood sample from the participants at the start and at the end of 12 weeks of intervention.

Exercise capacity
时间窗: 12 weeks
The renowned modified sub-maximal treadmill exercise test,which is the leading indicator of EC,was done to calculate maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max). The test began with a warm-up at a speed of 2.7 km/h for five minutes, andthe speed was increasedevery three minutes until the participantexerted the maximum effort and stopped upon exhaustion.
