简要总结
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of 8 months of yoga and walking exercise training on weight-related body fat and metabolic biomarkers in women. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a yoga group or a walking group. The yoga group will undergo 90-minute sessions, 3 times per week, while the walking group will engage in one-hour sessions, 6 times per week. Physical and metabolic markers will be measured at baseline and after 8 months of intervention.
详细描述
This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the differential impacts of yoga and walking exercise training on weight-related body fat and metabolic biomarkers in women over an 8-month period. The study will recruit women aged 18-65 years, who will be randomly assigned to either a yoga group or a walking group.
Yoga Group: Participants in the yoga group will attend 90-minute yoga sessions, 3 times per week.
Walking Group: Participants in the walking group will engage in one-hour fast-paced walking sessions, 6 times per week.
Outcome Measures: Physical and metabolic markers will be assessed at baseline and after 8 months of exercise intervention. The primary outcomes will include changes in body weight, BMI, visceral fat, and basal metabolism. Metabolic biomarkers such as serum leptin, glucose, total cholesterol (TC), apolipoprotein A (APOA), and apolipoprotein B (APOB) will also be measured.
Participants will be monitored for adherence to the exercise protocol and any adverse events throughout the study. Data will be collected during the intervention, and analyzed to determine the differential effects of yoga and walking on the measured outcomes.
