Background:
Obesity is a serious health concern which is often caused due to physical inactivity. This study examines the improvements in body composition, physical strength, cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility of individuals with obesity by conducting a 12-week calisthenics exercise program.
Methods:
Based on a randomized controlled trial (RCT), the study subjects were categorized as the intervention group (IG, n = 39) and the control group (CG, n = 38).
Results:
After 12 weeks, the IG showed substantial improvement than the CG, such as flexibility (Sit and Reach Test: p = 0.005, ES = 0.802), cardiovascular endurance (20-m Shuttle Run: p = 0.042, ES = 0.815), right-hand grip strength (p = 0.048, ES = 0.748), leg muscle strength (p = 0.049, ES = 0.539), back muscle strength (p = 0.022, ES = 0.754), and left-hand grip strength (p = 0.041, ES = 0.829). A substantial reduction were also noticed in body mass index (p = 0.019, ES = 0.728), weight (p = 0.024, ES = 0.778), fat mass (p = 0.032, ES = 0.696), muscle mass percentage (p = 0.020, ES = 0.498), fat percentage (p = 0.048, ES = 0.768), and muscle mass (p = 0.042, ES = 0.724).
Conclusion:
The results indicate that the calisthenics program enhanced body composition, flexibility, cardiovascular endurance, and muscular strength. This implies that calisthenics exercise could be a practical and efficient solution to boost the well-being of people.

Endurance exercises
Endurance exercises involve running, swimming, or cycling, which require repetitive movements with low force output. When a person engages in endurance exercise, a few noticeable changes occur in their skeletal muscles. For instance, the number of capillaries...

01:20Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
01:26Exercise Stress Test
Exercise stress testing, commonly known as a treadmill test, is a noninvasive procedure used to evaluate cardiovascular function and diagnose heart conditions.
Definition
An exercise stress test measures the heart's response to exertion using a treadmill or stationary bicycle. Chest electrodes record the heart's electrical activity through an ECG, and blood pressure is monitored regularly.
Purposes
