PG - 741 LID - 10.3389/fphys.2018.00741 [doi] LID - 741 AB - The purpose of this study was to compare the neurotrophic factor response following one session of high-intensity exercise, resistance training or both in a cohort of physically inactive overweight adults aged 18-30 years old. A randomized, parallel-group clinical trial of 51 men (23.6 +/- 3.5 years; 83.5 +/- 7.8 kg; 28.0 +/- 1.9 kg/m(2)) who are physically inactive (i.e., < 150 min of moderate-intensity exercise per week or IPAQ score of <600 MET min/week for >6 months) and are either abdominally obese (waist circumference >/=90 cm) or have a body mass index, BMI >/=25 and
