Interventions

An intervention group: a six-week exercise program that includes a 10 min warm-up session followed by a 30 min resistance exercise and 30 min aerobic exercise session and concludes with a 5 min cool-d

s fitness. The aerobic exercise session is mainly composed of a walking program that targets 60-75% of the participant&#39

s age-predicted maximal heart rate. A control group: maintenance of usual lifestyle.
