• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 60
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

Participants were randomly assigned to two groups prior to their second visit: the High intensity interval training group A (HIIT) and Low intensity interval training group B (LIIT). The randomization processes were conducted in Excel utilizing a random-number generator. Prior to the second visit, each participants' target exercise heart rate ranges were determined. Group A will receive a program of high intensity interval training program Group B will receive a program of Low intensity interval training program

Conditions

Obese; Elderly

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

• Perceived Exertion

  The Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale was used to assess perceived exertion during breathing. It was given after the first and final training sessions. The participants were asked to score their difficulty in breathing on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no trouble in breathing at all and 10 indicating maximum difficulty in breathing

  4 weeks

• Exercise Adherence

  The Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) is a self-reported 16-item questionnaire that rates adherence to prescribed workouts. The EARS are divided into three components. The suggested exercise questionnaire is discussed in Section (A), Section (B) discusses exercise adherence behavior, and Section (C) discusses the factors for exercise adherence/non-adherence. All items in sections B and C are rated on a 5-point Likert scale (0 = fully agree to 4 = entirely disagree). Section 'B' favourably phrased items (items 1, 4, and 6) and Section 'C' positively phrased items (items 4, 5, 6, and 7) are assessed in reverse order. Sections "B" and "C" have possible total scores ranging from 0 to 24 and 0 to 40, respectively. The potential total score for parts (B) and (C) is 64. A higher total score suggests more adherence to exercise.
