Brief Summary
Smoking can damage lung functions as a result of high carbon monoxide and low hemoglobin oxygen carrying capacity in the blood. Smoking between young people continues to increase, which can cause respiratory function problems and lung diseases at an early age. In the studies, it has been seen that smoking may reduce the oppression and exercise ability.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
International Physical Activity Questionnaire (Short)
It contains questions about the physical time spent in the last 7 days to learn about the physical activities of people in daily life. Metabolic equivalent (met) method was used to determine the level of physical activity. Standard Met values have been created for these activities. The daily and weekly physical activity level of the individual will be calculated by using the metal values determined for severe physical activity, moderate severe physical activity, walking and sitting.
Evaluation should be carried out before the start of treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.
Six-Minute Walk Test
It is a widely used test for evaluating the functional capacity of individuals. Individuals shall be requested to walk at normal walking speeds in a flat corridor of thirty meters long, with the start and end points determined for six minutes, and the distance in which the cases walk for six minutes shall be recorded in meters.
Evaluation should be carried out before the start of treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.
Scoring the Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND)
It is used to measure nicotine addiction. Points obtained from the scale, nicotine addiction level 0-2 Points: Very low level of nicotine addiction 3-4 points: low level of nicotine addiction, 5 points: moderate nicotine addiction, 6-7 points: high level of nicotine addiction, 8-10 points 8-10 points : It is classified as a very high level of nicotine addiction
Evaluation should be carried out before the start of treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.
Beck's Depression Inventory (BDI)
It is a scale applied to determine whether the person shows signs of depression. The scale consists of 21 items, and eleven items are divided into cognitions, two substances, two substances, five substances, physical symptoms, and one substance for individual symptoms. Each question is given to 0, 1, 2, or 3, and the patients are asked to choose the most appropriate one of these questions. A score between 0-63 is obtained. 0-9 no/minimal depression, 10-18 mild depression, 19-29 moderate depression, and 30-63 severe depression.
Evaluation should be carried out before the start of treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.
Lung Function Test
It allows the measurement of spirometry and pulmonary functions and the determination of abnormalities in the respiratory system. Spirometry shows the values obtained by exhalation and inhalation of air volumes during compulsory maneuvers. The main spirometry parameters are vital capacity (VC), challenging vital capacity (FVC), challenging expiratory volume in the first second (Fev1), and these parameters (Fev1/VC, Fev1/FVC).
Evaluation should be carried out before the start of treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.
Study Arms (3)
Face to face Exercise Group
EXPERIMENTALIn the face-to-face exercise group called Group 1, students will implement an exercise program of respiratory exercises and resistance exercises with the physiotherapist. Exercises will be held for 8 weeks
Telehealth Exercise Group
EXPERIMENTALIn the online (telehealth) exercise group, group 2 will be applied by the students with the help of the physiotherapist. Exercises will be held for 8 weeks
Control Group
NO INTERVENTIONIn the control group called Group 3, students will not be given any exercise program.
Interventions
The first 5 minutes of heating in the exercise program are planned to be implemented for 8 weeks, and the last 5 minutes are a cooling period. In the exercise program, which is planned to last 40 minutes in total, respiratory exercises will be applied to heating and cooling peryotes. As respiratory exercise, diaphragmatic respiratory exercise will be applied to heating and cooling peryots with 5 repetitions. Elastic resistant bands (Therand) will be used in resistant exercise training that will last for 30 minutes. The participants will be started to work with the resistance that they can do 10 again but cannot reach 14 repetitions. Elastic resistant bands are shoulder flexion, shoulder extension, shoulder ablution, shoulder horizontal abduction, elbow extension, hip ablution, hip flexion, and hip exercise. These exercises will be held once a week, 10 repetitions, 2 sets, for 8 weeks.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Signing the illuminated consent form,
- To be smoking at least 1 cigarette a day for the last 6 months,
- Not having orthopedic or neurological findings that can prevent the exercises included in the study,
- To have low-medium level physical activity level,
- Not to have any lower respiratory infection in the last 3 months.
You may not qualify if:
- To the exercise sessions to be held on time and not to arrive regularly
