Brief Summary

Obesity raises the risk of chronic illnesses in adults, especially heart disease, type II diabetes, and osteoarthritis. One way to combat obesity is by physical activity, and water-based exercise (hydrotherapy) is recognized as an enhancement of the more common on land physical activity. Obesity is associated with several negative health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease (CVD), cardiac enlargement, gallbladder disease, diabetes, several cancers, osteoarthritis, and sleeping disorders .In addition to being a significant predictor of coronary heart disease and heart failure. obesity is indirectly related to cardiovascular health through its association with several other CVD risk factors, including hypertension, high cholesterol, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, high triglycerides, and diabetes Therefore, obesity is a primary target for interventions to decrease overall cardiovascular risk. It is a randomized clinical trial conducted at the University OF Central Punjab Lahore. Convenience sampling technique will be used .Participants will be recruited through simple random sampling by sealed opaque envelope method into two Groups .Group A and Group B. Group A:Aqua jogging group: This group will perform aqua jogging for 60 minutes consisting of 10 minutes warming up, 40 minutes aqua jogging or land jogging and 10 minutes cooling down. Group B: Land based jogging group: This group will perform land jogging for 60 minutes consisting of 10 minutes warming up, 40 minutes aqua jogging or land jogging and 10 minutes cooling down. Assessment tools for this study will be cooper's 1.5 miles run test for cardiorespiratory endurance and health related quality of life questionnaire for Quality of life. The study will be completed within 10 months after synopsis approval from ethical Committee of RCRS \& AHS .Data will be entered and analysed by SPSS version 25. After assessing the normality of data, it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be use within a group or between two groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Cardiorespiratory Endurance(cooper; s1.5 miles run)

    Cardiorespiratory endurance measured by Cooper tests an easy running test of .cardiorespiratory endurance is the 2.4 km (1.5 mile) run test, which simply needs a timer and a running track. The test's objective is to cover the 2.4 km course in the quickest amount of time feasible. All competitors are positioned in a starting line formation. The clock starts when they are told to "go," and they then start running at their own pace. It determines the amount of cardiovascular fitness by estimating the body's capacity to transport oxygen. Pre-Post Readings will be taken

    12 weeks

  • Quality of life (health related QOL SF 36 Questionnaire)

    The Short Form Survey (SF-36) is a tool used to measure various aspects of quality of life, such as body pain, physical well-being or functionality. Restrictions on role performance brought on by issues with one's physical, mental, or social well-being as well as one's general sense of health. Pre-post readings will be taken

    12 weeks

  • BMI

    Measurement for BMI will perform by dividing a person's weight in kilograms by the square of height in meters .in which Height will be measured using an inches tape with participants on bare feet. Weight measurement will be taken by weighing machine. A high BMI can indicate high body fatness. Pre-post Readings will be taken12
