Study Summary

We are proposing a trial to directly compare a high intensity weight loss protocol to a moderate intensity weight loss protocol to determine which leads to greater improvements in physical function in severely obese older adults.

Primary Outcome

It is a measure of lower-extremity function consisting of walking speed, balance, and repeated chair stands. These 3 performance measures are scored from 0 to 4, with 4 indicating the highest level of performance and 0 the inability to complete the task. The summary score ranges from 0 (worst) to 12 (best). The SPPB is a well-studied composite measure and a strong predictor of disability, institutionalization, morbidity and mortality in initially non-disabled older persons. The reliability of th

Interventions
