Exercise-Diet Intervention
The participants who performed exercise-diet intervention performed an Astrand-rhyming test before and after the exercise program intervention. Participants followed a progressive exercise-program during four months according to initial physical fitness. The main exercises consisted of improving aerobic, speed and resistance performance. During all single sessions, breathlessness and fatigue were measured using 0 to10 Borg scale. A personal trainer certified by American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) supervised three sessions per week, the other two unsupervised training days the subjects were given the detailed training program to do in house/park. And also, this group received a diet intervention that consisted of a 20 percentage reduction of total energy expenditure estimated by the Mifflin formula with a nutrients distribution as follows: 50% carbohydrates, 30% lipids, and 20% proteins.
