Exercise-Targeted Smart Lifestyle Management

To investigate the effects of simple dietary management and diet combined with exercise capacity-targeted intelligent lifestyle management on improving metabolic indicators in patients with overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome.

This study aims to conduct a randomized controlled clinical trial among occupational populations with overweight/obesity and metabolic syndrome. By implementing a healthy dietary pattern with energy restriction and personalized exercise training interventions, we aim to investigate their effects on improving metabolic syndrome.
