Brief summary: This study is aimed at determining the effects of high-intensity circuit training versus low-intensity circuit training on functional strength and weight efficacy in overweight and obese females.

Detailed description: A high-intensity circuit promotes muscle mass and as a result, potentially reduces the incidence of cardiovascular disease and reduces the risk of death in the young population. Low-intensity interval training increases muscle circulation and improving the uptake of oxygen. Both high-intensity circuit training and low-intensity interval training enhance body composition, quality of life, functional fitness and decrease body mass index. These trainings also motivate participants to continue their exercise. This study will help us determine whether high intensity or low-intensity training is more helpful in improving the functional strength and weight efficacy in overweight and obese females. As obesity is on the rise in modern society, our results will help improve the quality of life of obese and overweight females.
