exercise program in the pulmonary function and cardiorespiratory fitness in children with asthma and respiratory symptoms

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aims to analyze the effects of an exercise program in the pulmonary function, cardiorespiratory fitness, diet quality index, physical activity, body composition, muscle function, agility, and psychological health in a group of children with asthma and respiratory symptoms

Experimental

A two month intervention program 3 days/week will be carried out. The session will last \~60 minutes, and will consist of a combined training (aerobic training \~30 min, and strength \~30 min of 7 whole body exercises (3 sets x 10 repetitions).The load was gradually increased as the strength of each child improved, i.e., from 40% of five-repetition maximum (5RM) lifting ability at the start of the program to 60% of 5RM at the end of the program. All sessions were individually supervised by trained professionals.
