Actual (reported)The effects of 12-week Pilates program on body-fat and muscular percentage measured by Physion-XP
The body composition is simultaneously measured by Physion-XP for outcome measures including body-fat percentage (%), and muscular percentage (%) in the upper and lower limbs. The higher muscular percentage and lower body-fat percentage would be associated with appropriate fitness. Changes of body-fat percentage, and muscular percentage in the upper and lower limbs measures will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.

The effects of 12-week Pilates program on weight measured by height scale
The body weight (kilograms) is measured by height scale. The higher body weight would be associated with obesity and the he lower weight without diseases and medical conditoins means the better fitness. Changes of body weight measures will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.

12-week programed Pilates intervention
maintenance of normal lifestyle in control group
The 60 min Pilates sessions were held twice a week for 12 weeks. Each session included three stages: 10 min of warm-up exercises, 40 min of floor-based Pilates training, and 10 min of cool-down exercises. Each stage was adjusted according to the participants' physical capacity. Only participants with an attendance rate of \> 80% were included in the final sample. The content of the exercise program was determined according to their muscular strength, flexibility, and fitness levels. The training course was divided into three levels: elementary, intermediate, and advanced. Each motion was performed in conjunction with a specific breathing pattern for effective muscle activations of each exercise.

The effects of 12-week Pilates program on BMI calculated by height and weight
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated by weight and height measures. Body Mass Index is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters squared. The higher BMI would be associated with obesity. Changes of BMI measures will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.

The effects of 12-week Pilates program on basal metabolic rate measured by MedGem Indirect Calorimeter
The handheld MedGem Indirect Calorimeter is used to measure basal metabolic rate. The higher outcomes mean the higher basal metabolic rate. Changes of basal metabolic rate will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
12 weeks
The effects of 12-week Pilates program on cardiovascular capacity
The cardiovascular capacity is evaluated by 3-minute step test. The higher index of cardiovascular capacity means the higher cardiovascular fitness. Changes of cardiovascular capacity will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
12 weeks
The effects of 12-week Pilates program on flexibility
The flexibility is evaluated by sit-and-reach test. The longer distance of test means the higher flexibility fitness. Changes of flexibility will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
12 weeks
The effects of 12-week Pilates program on muscular strength of upper limbs
The muscular strength of upper limbs is evaluated by grip-strength test. The higher strength of test means the higher strength fitness in upper limbs. Changes of muscular strength of upper limbs will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
12 weeks
The effects of 12-week Pilates program on muscular strength of lower limbs
The muscular strength of lower limbs is evaluated by 30 s chair stand test. The higher repetitions mean the higher strength fitness in lower limbs. Changes of functional physical fitness will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
12 weeks
The effects of 12-week Pilates program on core strength endurance
The core strength endurance is evaluated by 1-minute bent-knee sit-up test. The higher repetitions mean the higher core strength endurance fitness. Changes of core strength endurance will be assessed at the 0 week, and 12 weeks.
