Low Intensity steady state training

Intervention will be provided for a period of 8 weeks. For the first 4 weeks the intervention will consist of 35-40 minutes of supervised slow paced treadmill walk, five days a week. From week 5 till 8 the intervention will consist of 50-60 minutes of supervised slow paced treadmill walk, five days a week.

Intervention Type OTHER

Intervention will be provided for a period of 8 weeks. For the first 4 weeks the intervention will consist of 35-40 minutes of supervised slow paced treadmill walk, five days a week. From week 5 till 8 the intervention will consist of 50-60 minutes of supervised slow paced treadmill walk, five days a week.

High intensity interval training

Intervention will be provided for a period of 8 weeks, thrice a week. Intervention will start with a 5 minutes warm up period of jogging in place. For the first 4 weeks, 3 series of these exercises will be performed with 3 minutes of rest in between: 30 seconds burpees + 30 seconds recovery, 30 seconds lunges + 30 seconds recovery, 30 seconds skipping + 30 seconds recovery, 30 seconds squats + 30 seconds recovery.

Exercise session will be followed by a cool down of 5 to 10 minutes with upper and lower extremity stretches.
