Abstract
Cardiopulmonary Adaptation to Exercise Training among Obese Subjects
Highlights
Obesity is an epidemic worldwide medical problem that is characterized with excess energy intake than energy output, obesity usually associated with many co-morbidities [1,2]
Aerobic exercise is better than anaerobic exercise training in improving cardiopulmonary fitness among obese subjects
Obesity may be named as the mother of diseases as it is usually associated with number of many medical complications as cardiovascular disorders as hypertension, stroke and thrombosis as well as pulmonary disorders as obstructive sleep apnea in addition to musculoskeletal disorders as osteoarthritis in weight bearing joints, poor psychological wellbeing is common among obese subjects [7,8,9,10]
Summary
Obesity is an epidemic worldwide medical problem that is characterized with excess energy intake than energy output, obesity usually associated with many co-morbidities [1,2]. Obesity may be named as the mother of diseases as it is usually associated with number of many medical complications as cardiovascular disorders as hypertension, stroke and thrombosis as well as pulmonary disorders as obstructive sleep apnea in addition to musculoskeletal disorders as osteoarthritis in weight bearing joints, poor psychological wellbeing is common among obese subjects [7,8,9,10]. Aerobic exercise was proved to induce functional adaptation in both pulmonary and cardiovascular systems during rest as well as during training [13,14]. The aim was to measure cardiopulmonary adaptation to exercise training among obese subjects. Cardiopulmonary fitness among obese subjects is severely impaired with a multitude of complications; exercise training was proved to improve the physical fitness and overall quality of life
