“…The results of this study show that cycling workouts are effective in improving cardiorespiratory fitness. The magnitude of the change in VO2max in the current study (by 12.51%) is comparable with data from previous studies [2,14,23,24,25,27]. For example, 8-week cycling sessions of moderate and high intensity contributed to an increase of 11-12% in VO2max in female students aged 20-21 years [2].…”

“…Together with improved physical fitness, the optimization of anthropometric indices was one of the goals of cycling training, since abdominal obesity, measured based on waist circumference (WC) in combination with BMI, reliably predicts possible health risks. It is known that cycling training is an effective tool for optimizing body composition and reducing BMI [23,24]. Our results show that cycling training carried out according to the proposed program, without any restrictions in the diet, is effective for weight loss and stimulates decreases in WC in young women (of 6.05% on average).…”

Introduction. Indoor cycling training programs at fitness clubs offer the possibility of optimizing the structure and amount of physical activity, which reduces the risk of disrupting the adaptive abilities of women’s bodies. The main purpose of this study was to identify the effect of an indoor cycling program on the body composition and physical fitness of young women.Material and methods. Twenty-nine women (age = 29.31 ± 3.40 years, body weight = 70.71 ± 6.15 kg, and height = 169.83 ± 3.17 cm) took part in the study, participating in three classes per week for 16 weeks. Each class included three periods: the preparatory, main, and supporting periods. Body composition (waist circumference and body mass index), cardiorespiratory fitness (VО2max), motor fitness (balance), and musculoskeletal fitness (upper and lower body muscle strength and muscular endurance) were compared before the beginning of the study and after 10 and 16 weeks of training. Changes recorded in each variable over time were analyzed statistically using repeated measures methods.Results. Significant improvements in physical fitness were identified in the values of the body mass index (7.81%; ES: 0.95, p = 0.0001) and VО2max (12.51%; ES: 1.02, p = 0.0001). Moderate improvements were found in lower body muscle strength (11.13%; ES: 0.66, p = 0.0001) and waist circumference (6.05%, ES: 0.65, p = 0.0001). There was an increase in the strength of the muscles of the upper body (5.27%; ES: 0.41, p = 0.0001), muscular endurance (8.20%; ES: 0.32, p = 0.0001), and balance (10.68%; ES: 0.29, p = 0.003).Conclusion. Indoor cycling in a fitness club is an effective form of exercise for young women; it has targeted training effects on the body’s functional systems, adaptive abilities, and physical fitness.

“…Therefore, a lot of sedentary people participate in this activity in order to lose weight; it is a motivating activity for them. In this sense, Valle et al (2009 ; 2010) reported that indoor cycling associated with a restricted diet is an excellent option in controlling obesity and serum lipids. Bianco et al (2010) found a decrease in body weight, without any restriction on food consumption, and an improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness in young overweight women.…”

The purpose of the study was: 1) to determine the intensity of an indoor cycling session; 2) to know the correlation between the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scales (Borg and OMNI) and % heart rate reserve (%HRR) with categories; and 3) to evaluate the validity of RPE scales (Borg and OMNI) with respect to the heart rate (HR) and %HRR. A total of fifty-three subjects, 25 males and 28 females (ages: 28.79 ± 6.04 years; body height: 1.71 ± 0.09 m; body mass: 69.59 ± 13.69 kg) were recruited from a private fitness club. All subjects performed the same predesigned indoor cycling session with a total duration of 50 minutes. During the experimental trial, the HR was recorded every 5 s. The Borg 6–20 RPE and OMNI 0–10 scales were used to assess perceived exertion in each phase. The average HR in the cardiovascular phase was 152.24 ± 14.11 b•min-1, the %HRR was 80.62 ± 7.10; and the overall RPE (Borg and OMNI scales) was 14.94 ± 1.11 and 7.18 ± 0.79 points, respectively. The correlation between an average HR and %HRR with Borg and OMNI scales was lower than r = 0.4 (p < 0.05). The correlation value between the Borg and the OMNI RPE scales was r = 0.82 (p < 0.001). It can be concluded that indoor cycling elicits effort of high intensity which could be inappropriate for some participants. The Borg and OMNI scales showed a low validity to quantify the intensity performed in indoor cycling sessions. It indicates the necessity to control the intensity of effort with other instruments to improve efficacy and decrease the risk of overload in this activity.

“…The mechanism by which the resistance or endurance training leads to decreased fat mass is related to the increase in the metabolism, energy usage, and enzymatic processes involved in fat metabolism. In this respect, an increase in lipoprotein lipase activity has been reported (21). One limitation of the present study was that the lipoprotein lipase changes were not measured.…”

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the effects of 8 weeks of resistance and endurance training with vitamin D3 supplementation on blood pressure, resting heart rate, and body composition in obese hypertensive middle-aged men. Methods: Sixty-three obese hypertensive men (age = 39.85 ± 2.8 years; BMI = 31.6 ± 1.4 kg/m 2) volunteered to participate in this study and were randomly divided into six groups: resistance training with vitamin D3 (R + D, n = 11), resistance training with placebo (R + P, n = 12), endurance training with vitamin D3 (E + D, n = 9), endurance training with placebo (E + P, n = 11), vitamin D3 alone (D, n = 10), and control with no intervention (C, n = 10). The training protocol consisted of endurance and resistance training three times a week for 8 weeks. The supplementation groups consumed 3000 IU of vitamin D3 daily, and the placebo groups ingested the same amount of maltodextrin. Results: The training groups showed a significant decrease in the post-test fat mass, resting heart rate, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared with the pre-test values. Also, the fat-free mass significantly increased only in the R + D and R + P groups. No significant changes were observed in the C and D groups. Moreover, there were significant differences between the groups in the post-test fat mass and systolic blood pressure in favor of the E + D group. Conclusions: Although endurance and resistance training with vitamin D3 supplementation improved the body composition, resting heart rate, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure, the reduction in the systolic blood pressure and body fat mass was significantly higher in the E + D group.
