description | To develop a program of
high volume physical exercises, of moderate to high intensity, adapted to the
working context of Kinshasa. In a trial study of structured, spontaneous and
mixed physical exercise programs associated with nutrition education, lasting 3
months, from November 7 to January 7, 2014. 30 obese sedentary workers 44 ± 844
± 8.6 on average, year-olds were
randomly selected from 157 obese individuals out of a general population of 400
employees in the personal list of the selected company. These workers were
divided into three groups of physical exercises, of which the first group
consisted of 10 workers in a three-day, moderate to high intensity structured
exercise program, including: jogging, aerobics, basketball, volleyball,
swimming, abdominals and walking of 10,000 steps a day. The second group was
also composed of 10 workers undergoing a spontaneous exercise program of the
same duration, intensity and frequency including: walk, up and down the stairs
and finally the third group composed and then the third group of 10 workers
submitted to a mixed exercise program (the mixture of the two programs).
Quantitative variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation. The ANOVA
test was used to compare the variables of two groups. A value of p-value ≤ 0.05
was considered a threshold of statistical significance. Decreased weight, waist
circumference and body mass index were observed intra group before and after
exercise programs. After the intervention, the group subjected to the mixed
exercises improved more significantly (p = 0.0001) the morphological parameters
of the obese than the group subjected to the structured and spontaneous
exercises with diet. A moderate to high intensity, high volume mixed exercise
program significantly improves the morphology of obese sedentary workers
compared to the structured and spontaneous exercise program. It can be
considered as an effective non-pharmacological strategy to combat the
nutritional and epidemiological transition in the workplace, where obesity is
the main cornerstone. |
