Exercise for Preventing the Metabolic Syndrome in Latinoamerican Amerindians

August 29, 2018 updated by: Universidad Santo Tomas

Similar Improvements in Cardiometabolic Risk Factors for Preventing the Metabolic Syndrome in Latinoamerican Amerindians After 12-weeks of Concurrent Training

Despite exercise training decrease blood fasting glicaemy in 'average' terms, there is a wide inter-individual variability after exercise training explored mainly in adults but not in adults with prediabetes comorbidities. Thus, is yet unknown the effects and influence of the concurrent training (CT) eliciting responders (R) and non-responders (NR) cases (i.e., percentage of subjects who experienced a non-change/worsened response after training in some metabolic outcomes).

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
No Intervention: Control group
No-exercise
Experimental: Endurance training plus resistant training
Concurrent training
The core part of each session included resistance training (RT) followed by aerobic training exercises (for 50 and 30 minutes, respectively) and was preceded and followed by a 5-minute warm-up and cool-down with callisthenic movements.
