Clinical Trial Summary

This study may help to improve strength and body composition in females with PCOS. It will enhance ability of an overweight individual to perform functional tasks (i.e. daily living tasks or physical activity) to be physically active. This may facilitate the adoption of a more active lifestyle, thereby increasing the likelihood of success in overall weight-reduction strategies.

Description:

Poly cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder which is most common in females with fertile age. A number of small fluid filled sacs formed in ovaries which results in failure of egg release. Poly cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine problem which is characterized by the polycystic ovaries, menstrual problems, infertility, metabolic disorder, psychological problems, elevated androgens, hirsutism, acne and obesity. PCOS also causes psychological disorders which include depression, anxiety, poor body image, low self-esteem and decreased health- related quality of life. Some well-controlled randomized clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of exercise training program in women with PCOS. There are many beneficial effects of exercises which improve physical fitness, body composition, and cardiovascular, hormonal, reproductive and psychological outcomes. Periodization training program involves period of active rest which allows muscle adaptations through variable intensity, volume and rest. The advantage of periodization is that it prevent from overtraining symptoms such as muscle stiffness, muscle soreness, sprain, strain, possible injury and decreased performance. High intensity interval training is effective in reducing body mass index and improving body composition in females with PCOS.

The study will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Mohsin memorial hospital Faisalabad. This study will be completed in time duration of ten months after the approval of synopsis and convenient sampling technique will be used. Total twenty four subjects will be assigned randomly by using lottery method into two groups. Group A will receive periodized resistance training and Group B will receive high intensity interval training. Warm up and cool down period of ten minutes of treadmill training will be performed by both groups. Data will be collected from all participants at baseline and after 8 weeks of treatment by using BMI and WHO-QOL BREF questionnaire. After assessing the normality data will be analyzed by using parametric or non-parametric test by using SPSS-25.

Intervention

Other:
• Periodized resistance training
It consists of patients who will receive periodized resistance training 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks. Resistance training has been performed according to FITT principal and as per ACSM recommendation. Frequency: Three days in a week Intensity: 60% intensity with one repetition maximum and 10% intensity were added each the two weeks.4 sets and 8-12 rep as per ACSM criteria. There will be rest of 60 second after every set and 120 seconds after every exercise. Type: 8 types of resistance exercises were performed. There were 4 set of each exercise with 8 to 12 repetitions. These exercises are smith press, seated press, squat, lying dumbbell leg curls, leg extension, leg press, standing barbell, lying barbell and sit ups. Time: 40 minutes per session.
• High intensity interval training
It consists of patients who will receive high intensity interval training 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks for 30 to 35 minutes. Active phase: Two weekly sessions of four times four minutes at 90-95% of individual heart rate maximum, separated by three minutes of active rest period and one weekly session of ten times one minute with maximal intensity, separated by one minute of active rest. The exercise mode will be treadmill or outdoor walking/running or cycling (self-selected).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Body Mass Index	Body mass index is a screening tool derived from the weight and height of a person. It is a simple numeric measure of a subject"s thickness or thinness. Calculated values help in determining if a person is underweight, normal weight or overweight. Body mass index used to classify average sedentary (physically inactive) populations, with an average body composition. Body Mass Index is a simple calculation using a person's height and weight. The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person's weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters squared. A BMI of 25.0 or more is overweight, while the healthy range is 18.5 to 24.9.	8th week
Primary	WHO quality of life Bref	The WHOQOL- BREF is a 26 items self-report questionnaire consisting of 4 domains of quality of life. Physical health (7 items), psychological health (6 items), social relationships (3 items), and environmental health (8 items); it also contains 2 items of overall QOL and general health.	8th week
