Self-selected vs. prescribed aerobic exercise intensity: impacts on pleasure in women with obesity

Frontiers in Psychology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 16

Published: Feb. 7, 2025

Self-selection of aerobic training intensity is an approach that allows practitioners to develop autonomy (choice pace), improve physical fitness, and contribute better affective responses adherence. However, it still unclear whether self-selection in group settings comparable individual conditions. The aim the present study was compare effect three protocols on psychophysiological physically inactive adult obese women. sample consisted 90 women with a mean age 48.3 ± 5.5 years BMI 31.2 4.8 kg/m2, who participated treadmill protocols: 1- Control (IPI) individually prescribed (64 76% HRmax), 2- Small (SGS) self-selected intensity, 3- Individual (ISS). Heart rate (HR), total session volume (VL), valence determined by feeling scale (FS), enjoyment Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PACES), intention repeat exercise (INT), Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction (BPNFS) were evaluated. Statistical analyses conducted using two-way ANOVA for HR FS, one-way VL, PACES, INT, BPNFS Tukey post hoc test significance criteria (p < 0.05). results showed VL similar > 0.05) between IPI, SGS ISS, while INT significantly higher ISS than IPI also presented These findings suggest among different protocols. Affective more positive perceived We conclude safe, effective, strategy at moderate levels, providing enjoyable experience may greater adherence training.

A Multicomponent Training Program Improves Physical Function and Quality of Life for a Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma Survivor Subjected to Internal Hemipelvectomy: A Case Study

Journal of Clinical Medicine, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(5), P. 1541 - 1541

Published: Feb. 25, 2025

Background/Objectives: Overcoming an oncological process has a significant impact on lower-extremity sarcoma survivors’ quality of life, due to the deterioration in their physical and functional state. This study evaluated effects six-month multicomponent training program function life mesenchymal chondrosarcoma survivor. Methods: The survivor was subjected internal hemipelvectomy including right hemipelvis plus femoral joint resection proximal femur followed by chemotherapy radiotherapy according oncology protocol. performed twice weekly included resistance, cardiorespiratory, trunk control, stability exercises. Results: Functional assessments revealed improvements hand grip strength, walking speed, balance, coordination. Timed Up Go Test showed 50% reduction completion time, reflecting better mobility strength. Additionally, gait speed increased significantly, balance trials indicated enhanced Quality evaluations progress health, psychological well-being, environmental engagement. Conclusions: Taken together, this research emphasizes importance tailored exercise interventions for survivors, particularly those with impairments. Such programs are vital complements conventional rehabilitation strategies, fostering activity adapted individual needs. By addressing multifaceted challenges survivorship, these enhance capacity, reduce disability, improve overall well-being. Therefore, case highlights program’s effectiveness managing post-treatment sequelae, opening pathway improved autonomy life.

Feasibility of Measuring Context Specific Sedentary Behavior and Pulse Wave Velocity in Endometrial Cancer Survivors

Integrative Cancer Therapies, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 24

Published: Jan. 1, 2025

Purpose: Sedentary behavior (SB) contributes to the heightened risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in endometrial cancer survivors (ECS). This feasibility study aimed evaluate key outcomes assess practicality SB reduction interventions for ECS. Secondary aims included domain assessment and preliminary efficacy testing relationship between arterial stiffness. Methods: Forty stage-1 ECS (BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m², aged 50-80, <12 months post-treatment) participated study, which measured total domain-specific using accelerometry ecological momentary (EMA). Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) was estimated via Mobil-O-Graph, linear regression models examined association PWV. Results: The achieved 4 5 assessed outcomes, with a 63% consent rate 10 months. Retention high, 90% participants completing all aspects. Fidelity strong, though EMA compliance 69%, slightly below 70% target. Self-reported 71.4% lower than accelerometer-measured [MD: −5.00 hours/day (95% CI: −6.57 −3.43), P < .001]. exhibited PWV 9.04 ± 1.80 m/s, 13.4% higher normative values, occupational significantly associated Conclusions: highlights high levels ECS, indicating need interventions, particularly SB. retention rates suggest are willing engage change, pointing future research focusing on strategies reduce improve health.

Digital Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Interventions for Community-Living Adults: Umbrella Review

Journal of Medical Internet Research, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 27, P. e66294 - e66294

Published: March 18, 2025

Background Digital interventions hold significant potential for improving physical activity (PA) and reducing sedentary behavior (SB) in adults. Despite increasing interest, there remain surprising gaps the current knowledge of how best to deliver these interventions, including incorporating appropriate theoretical frameworks change techniques. Following numerous systematic reviews, is now umbrella reviews provide an overview evidence. Objective This review aimed explore digital PA SB community-living adults across effectiveness, key components, methodological quality. Methods followed Joanna Briggs Institute framework reviews. Key search terms were developed iteratively, alongside interventions.

Survivors of lower-extremity sarcoma are at high risk developing physical performance dysfunctions and impaired quality life resulting from the disease itself adverse side effects treatments. Therefore, implementation safe effective exercise programs addressing survivors’ functionality is an essential complementary nonpharmacological intervention in cancer continuum. The viability success activity survivors remains largely unknown, likely due to heterogeneity clinical presentation development this type regarding diagnosis, treatment, prognosis. This study provides specific recommendations for designing appropriate training program that will help maintain improve their life. main conclusions reported here result scientific studies analyses data both selected a systematic search PubMed database. Sarcoma should be advised as soon diagnosed perform simple low-intensity short-duration prior surgery (prehabilitation). Later, during treatments taking into account psychobiological status, adapted may developed within hospital environment. Finally, building healthy habits recommended so disease-free survival, including regular activity, always under supervision professionals field. Hopefully, these suggestions contribute better professional by specialists safe, reliable, survivors.
