“…In the analysis of essential categories, the category that presented the greatest weight was "Better physical condition", with eight of the ten participants expressing it as the area or dimension that most improved of their health-related quality of life. This may serve as an incentive for participants to continue exercising, since participants who improve their fitness experience less difficulty in establishing and maintaining regular exercise in their daily lives compared to those who experience a reduction in fitness after an exercise intervention program (Quist et al, 2022).…”

Introduction. One of the aspects of health most affected in patients infected by COVID-19 was mental health. Leading organizations worldwide have recommended physical activity as one of the main actions. Objective. To analyze the effect of a short-term aerobic training program on biological and mental health and quality of life indicators in post-Covid-19 patients. Methods. Symptomatology of depression, anxiety, stress, quality of life, vital signs, physical fitness and body composition were measured in 10 post COVID-19 patients. An aerobic physical exercise program was applied at 40-60% intensity, five days a week, 50 minutes per session for four weeks. Results. A 30% decrease in depression symptomatology, 58% in stress and 44% in anxiety was found during the intervention period (p<0.001). Regarding the perception of quality of life, the psychological area was the one that presented a positive effect during the intervention (p=0.035). An increase in leg strength (p=0.018) and a decrease in body fat (p=0.005) were found during the intervention. Conclusion. A short-term physical exercise program shows benefits in mental health indicators in post-COVID-19 patients. Key Words: Physical activity; Mental health; Quality of life, COVID-19; Fitness.

“…In physically active young men and women, subclinical atherosclerosis has an inverse association with CRF, highlighting the importance of endurance capacity in reducing the risk of early atherosclerosis [ 3 ]. Sports and leisure time-related physical activity (PA) may attenuate the age-related decline in CRF [ 4 ]. Completion of a structured exercise intervention, such as active commuting or vigorous-intensity leisure-time exercise, is associated with long-term maintenance of improvements in CRF and body composition (BC) [ 5 ].…”

Introduction: This study investigates the impact of body composition on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in adult females, focusing on factors such as maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2 max). It also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a physically active lifestyle for achieving CRF. Previous research links CRF to protection against metabolic syndrome. Objective: To investigate the impact of body composition as specified by body mass index (BMI), fat-free mass (FFM), fat mass (FM), and basal metabolic rates (BMRs) on CRF in adult females. Materials and methods: Adult females aged 19-24 participated in this prospective cross-sectional experimental study (n=110). The study excluded those with specific health conditions. Anthropometric measurements, bio-impedance analysis, and a Balke treadmill test were conducted to assess VO 2 max and, hence, the CRF. Nutrient intake was assessed, and energy requirements were calculated. The data were analyzed using Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS, version 21; IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Armonk, NY). The test statistics deployed were mean (± SD), ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, post-hoc Bonferroni test, and regression analysis. Results: The study revealed significant differences in anthropometry among BMI categories. Energy intake showed no significant variation. Body mass distribution, BMRs, and vital signs significantly differed among BMI groups. Most participants exhibited poor CRF; a negative correlation between BMI and VO 2 max was observed. Conclusion: Body compositions, particularly BMI and FFM, body fat percentage, and BMR, influence CRF in young adult females. Poor CRF was prevalent among participants, indicating a potential impact on cardiovascular health. The findings underline the importance of addressing lifestyle factors in promoting better cardiorespiratory health among young adult females.
