Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Weight. Timepoint: The start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: Using the same standard method and scale.;Maximal O2 uptake. Timepoint: The start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th we. Method of measurement: The step test will be performed using the Queen's college method, and the maximal O2 uptake will be estimated via the formula.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Adherence rate. Timepoint: Weeks 4,8 and 12. Method of measurement: The percentage of the number of training sessions that have been performed completely to the total sessions.;Drop out rate. Timepoint: Weeks 4,8 and 12. Method of measurement: The number of people who dropped out during the study.;Adverse events. Timepoint: Weeks 4,8 and 12. Method of measurement: Any complication related to the intervention that occur during the study is recorded in the exercise log book.;Anthropometric findings(waist circumference, hip circumference, waist/hip circumference ratio). Timepoint: At the start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: Using the same standard method and metric tool.;Blood pressure. Timepoint: At the start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: In a sitting position and after 5 minutes of rest, with the same sphygmomanometer, the average of two measurements will be recorded. If there is a difference of more than 5mmHg in the measurements, whether systolic or diastolic pressure, the measurement will be repeated for the third time. .;Lipid profile including TG, LDL and HDL. Timepoint: At the start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: Examined at the same laboratory for biochemical evaluations after 12hours of fasting.;Factors related to glucose metabolism including FBS and HOMA-IR. Timepoint: At the start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: Examined at the same laboratory for biochemical evaluations after 12hours of fasting.;Body composition (body fat percentage). Timepoint: At the start of the study (before the intervention) and the 12th week. Method of measurement: The percentage of body fat and other components will be determined by the Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis method using the relevant device.
