 ====== Prospective Lifestyle Study ======
+===== Study aims =====
 This study aimed to improve habitual snoring to mild sleep apnea through lifestyle intervention that involves sleep studies, neurocognitive testing, evaluation of body composition and physical fitness, physiological data collected with a smartwatch, questionnaires, and a sleep diary. The study will not only allow for the evaluation of a new lifestyle program for mild sleep apnea but is also helping to validate the used equipment, as well as contribute to the understanding of sleep and its related scientific fields.
+===== Study Protocol =====
 Around 200 individuals aged 18 – 40 will be invited to participate. Inclusion criteria are a BMI ≥ 25, physical inactivity, and confirmed habitual snoring to mild sleep apnea. Shift workers can not participate.
 Participants will be divided randomly into three intervention groups:
- - Exercises in a group with a coach for 12 weeks (3x week, 60 min)
+  - Exercises in a group with a coach for 12 weeks (3x week, 60 min)

- - Regular use of the Sleep Revolution App for 12 weeks

-The research and preparation for the study
-Participants that fulfil the inclusion criteria of the study will be chosen from the people that have answered the screening list (https://svefnsetrid.ru.is/en). Some of them have already participated in sleep studies from previous projects in the Sleep Revolution or have sleep study from collaborators but those that do not have a sleep study needs to undergo a simple sleep study to confirm snoring to mild/moderate sleep apnea. All chosen participants will be asked to wear a smartwatch and fill in a sleep diary for 2 weeks prior to the intervention period to get a baseline.

 Participants will be asked to answer a background questionnaire; a personalized link will be sent via e-mail.
 There will be 5-7 visits (depending on groups) that will take place at RU.
-Primary visit (approx. 30- 45min):
-The study will be introduced and informed consent signed. Those that need sleep study will get equipment. Then, relevant apps will be installed on the participant’s mobile phone. Smartwatch will be handed out to use for two weeks.

 Simultaneously as the tasks are done, brainwaves,heart rate, breathing and sweating are monitored with measuring equipment that is placed on the participants before the tasks start.
 Participants will be handed equipment for a three-night sleep measurement. The equipment is returned after the last measurement night.
 Smartwatches are handed out to participants for use during the intervention period.
