Filter by:This study evaluates the cocoa supplementation and aerobic exercise on central pressure and arterial stiffness parameters in physically inactive middle-aged individuals. 500mg capsules will be offered to all patients. Of these, half will offer the content of 500mg of cocoa per capsule or placebo capsules. The placebo will contain a pharmacologically inert substance (microcrystalline cellulose) of the same color. A half will start 50' aerobic training 3 times/week while the other half will continue without exercise.
The aim of our study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the Occupational Sitting And Physical Activity Questionnaire (OSPAQ) scale in Turkish by making a cultural adaptation in office workers, which was developed to evaluate work-related sitting, standing, walking and doing heavy work. 100 office workers will be included in the study. Physical activity level of office workers will be evaluated with Turkish OSPAQ and International Physical Activity Questionnaire.
The purpose of the first phase of this study is to determine the physical activity (PA) barriers and motivational factors of university students and their body awareness using the transteoretic model (TTM). The aim of the second phase of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions aimed at eliminating barriers determined in students who are in the "precontemplation", "contemplation" and "preparation" stages according to TTM. Also it will be examined the effects of these interventions on PA level.
Implementation intentions support people to turn intentions into action, and "Volitional Help-Sheets" are a tool which helps people to form implementation intentions. The study will recruit participants from secondary and tertiary mental health services. The participants will be randomised to one of two groups. Participants in Group 1, the control group, will receive the Volitional Help-Sheet (psychoeducational self-help sheet) but not form implementation intentions. Participants in Group 2, the experimental condition, will use the Volitional Help-Sheet to form implementation intentions. Participants will then complete an acceptability and feasibility measure. At follow up, participants will repeat baseline measures. The feasibility and acceptability of using a Volitional Help-Sheet to form implementation intentions to help people using secondary and tertiary care mental health services to reduce sedentary behaviour will be evaluated.
Investigating the effects of interrupting various lengths of prolonged sitting with bike sprints on post prandial lipemia the next day. We will conduct three trials, one control, one with two-hour sitting intervals (total of 4 bouts of bike sprints) and one with 6-hour sitting intervals I total of two bouts of bike sprints). A milkshake high fat tolerance test will be conducted the next day and whole body fat oxidation as well as triglyceride area under the curve will be measured every hour for the duration of the 6-hour test.
The project aims to find out the differences between two different types of structured training interventions have on the lipid profile of persons with diagnosed dyslipidemia. Each training intervention will last for 12 weeks. Subjects participating in the project will undergo a series of tests before and after the training intervention which will allow us to make conclusions.
