Effect of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise on Quarry Workers
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of aerobic exercise training and resistance exercise training on ventilatory function in quarry workers. It will also evaluate their effects on functional capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does aerobic exercise training improve ventilatory function more effectively than resistance exercise training? How do aerobic and resistance exercise training affect functional capacity and health-related quality of life in quarry workers? Researchers will compare aerobic exercise training and resistance exercise training with a control group receiving routine treatment and breathing exercises to determine which intervention is more effective in improving ventilatory function, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to one of three groups: an aerobic exercise training group, a resistance exercise training group, or a control group. Receive the assigned intervention three times per week for eight consecutive weeks. Undergo ventilatory function assessment using spirometry. Complete assessments of functional capacity and health-related quality of life before and after the intervention.
