This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether combining two lifestyle strategies—eating within a restricted time window each day and doing high-intensity interval exercise—can help adults with overweight or obesity lose fat and improve their overall metabolic health over 12 months. The study will compare people who follow this combined program to a control group that continues their normal routine. Researchers will track changes in body composition, fitness, blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure.
Many people struggle with weight management and related health problems like high blood sugar and high cholesterol. Researchers want to see whether combining time-restricted eating with intensive exercise might work better together than either approach alone, and whether this combination can create lasting improvements.

If you are in the treatment group, you will follow a structured program of time-restricted eating and high-intensity interval training for 12 months, with support provided over the telephone. You will have three in-person or virtual visits—at the start, at 6 months, and at 12 months—where researchers will measure your body composition, fitness level, blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure. Between visits, you will be asked to complete brief surveys about your diet, physical activity, sleep, and how well you are sticking with the program. If you are in the control group, you will continue your normal lifestyle and have no study visits or follow-up.
