Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 3 of physical exercise training programs, with a supplementation in fruits and vegetables, on body composition. 126 women will be randomized into 3 groups (42 subjects per group). The first program will be conducted at a relatively low intensity of effort, corresponding to the maximum rate of lipid oxidation (LIPOXmax)measured by indirect calorimetry. The second program will be at 60% of VO2peak and the third program will be prescribed according to the Good Practices physical Guidelines (30 minutes per day at a moderate intensity). All subjects will receive a free supplement of 5 fruits and vegetables per day during all the intervention. The intervention will last 5 months in total.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

LIPOXmax

Arm 1: LIPOXmax arm. Subjects will perform a physical activity 4x1 hour per week at the optimal intensity for fat oxidation (LIPOXmax) measured by indirect calorimeter.

BEHAVIORAL

60% VO2peak

Arm 2: physical activity standard arm (60% of VO2max measured by cardio respiratory exercise test). Subjects will realize 4 sessions per week and duration of sessions will be adjusted so that arms 1 and 2 have the same total energy expenditure by session.

BEHAVIORAL

Good Medical Practices

Arm 3: The subjects initially receive the recommendations of good medical practice for physical activity (achieving at least 30min per day of "moderate" exercise).

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

supplementation in fruits and vegetables

all groups will be supplemented in fruits and vegetables (5 per day) during all the study
