Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected Outcome 1: It is expected that exercise will promote greater heart rate variability. Checked by the heart rate recording method using a watch that records RR intervals.;Outcome found 1: Greater heart rate variability was observed as a result of aerobic exercise. ;Expected Outcome 2: Exercise is expected to promote greater membrane stability. Checked by the osmotic fragility method that quantifies the variation in red blood cell resistance to hemolysis when exposed to the action of hypotonic saline solutions.;Outcome found 4: No change in membrane stability was observed after exercise.;Expected Outcome 3: It is expected that exercise will promote a reduction in proinflammatory cytokines. Verified by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbant Assay (ELISA) Enzyme Testing Methods;Outcome found 3: No change in proinflammatory cytokines was observed after the exercise.;Expected Outcome 4: It is expected that exercise will promote an improvement in eating disorders. Evaluated using the EAT-26 (Eating Attitudes Test), BES (Binge Eating Scale) and BITE (Bulimic Investigatory Test Edinburgh) questionnaires.;Outcome found 4: An improvement in eating disorders was observed after the exercise. | — |

| Expected Outcome 1: It is expected that exercise will promote a decrease in body mass. Verified by the anthropometric assessment method using a bioimpedance scale (Biodynamics model 450c Biodynamics, Shoreline, WA, USA). ;Outcome found 1: No reduction in body mass was observed after aerobic exercise.
