Comparing the Effects of Aerobic & Resistance Exercises and Vitamins D & E on Oxidative Stress & Inflammatory Markers Among Patients with Depression

"For aerobic exercise, patient will perform cycling. The patient will perform stationary bike with an intensity of 60-85% of MHR by using Karvonean formula for duration of 30 minutes for 4 days/ week. Participants will be advised by the physical therapist to sit on a cycle ergometer with back supported, hands holding the handle bar and feet firmly placed on the pedals.~The imprint of FITT protcol by ACSM for aerobic exercise will be as follows, Frequency: 4 days/week Intensity: 60-85% of MHR Time: 30 minutes Type: Stationary bike"

The strength training protocol will focus on 10 major muscles of the body. The sessions will be performed for 4 days per week, lasting approximately 30 minutes. The training will be divided in a systematical manner, on first- and third-day participant will perform strength training of upper limb and abdominal muscles that include: Biceps, Triceps, Pectoralis Major, Deltoid, and abdominal muscles. On second and fourth day, participant will perform strength training of lower back and lower limb muscles that include: Latissimus Dorsi, Abdominals, Back Extensors, Hamstrings, Quadriceps and Calf. The intensity of the weight bearing exercises will be calculated using 1 Repetition Maximum (RM) method. The protocol will be divided as follows: 2 days the participant will perform exercises for upper limb and 2 days, patient will perform exercises for lower limb.
