Interventions
Aerobic exercise
Intensity of exercise:Subjects conduct an aerobic exercise at 40-59% heart rate reserve(HRR). Time of aerobic exercise:from 30 to 45 minutes each day, five days a week.
Resistance exercise
The resistance exercise was consisted of equipment trainings and body weight trainings. Participants are required to exercise 3 times a week. Intensity of equipment trainings: 70% 1-RM. Exercise volume: 15-20 repetitions for a set, from 2 sets to 4 sets gradually. Body weight trainings: 15-30 repetitions for a set, from 2 sets to 4 sets gradually.
combined exercise
Subjects conduct both aerobic and resistance trainings. Details of aerobic training session: Subjects conduct an aerobic exercise at 40-59% heart rate reserve(HRR) from 50-55 minutes each day, 3-4 days a week. Details of resistance training session: The resistance exercise was consisted of equipment trainings and body weight trainings. Participants are required to exercise 2 times a week.
