Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is an observational study aiming to Examine the effects of video-based yoga compared to face-to-face yoga and physical exercise practices on the physical features, respiratory capacity and sleep quality of sedentary women in pandemic days.

The pranayama (respiration), asana (poses), and meditation were given to the face-to-face yoga group, and the same exercises of the face-to-face yoga group were recorded in the video for the video-based yoga group. The exercises for respiration, muscle strengthening, stabilization, and flexibility were given face-to-face to the physical exercise group.

This is an observational study aiming to Examine the effects of video-based yoga compared to face-to-face yoga and physical exercise practices on the physical features, respiratory capacity and sleep quality of sedentary women in pandemic days.

The respiration, poses, and meditation were given to the face-to-face yoga group, and the same exercises of the face-to-face yoga group were recorded in the video for the video-based yoga group. The exercises for respiration, muscle strengthening, stabilization, and flexibility were given face-to-face to the physical exercise group. The sessions for each group were given for a total of 6 weeks (2days/week) as 12 sessions, and 60 min. Their respiration (spirometer Pony-Fx), sleep (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), posture (New York Posture Rating Chart), balance (Single Leg Stance Assessment, Functional Reach Distance), functional strength (5X Sit-to-Stand test), fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale) and quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF) were evaluated at the beginning and end of the 6 weeks. The data were assessed statistically.

Video-based yoga group

The pranayama (respiration), asana (poses), yoga exercises and meditation were given to by means of video at home for 6 weeks (2days/week) as 12 sessions, and 60 min.

Sociodemographic profile, quality of life, sleep, fatigue, physical function and balance assessments

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Respiratory functions are assessed with a portable spirometer according to the criteria of the American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society. Measures the physical, mental, social, and environmental well-being were tested to understand the quality of life. The quality of sleep, delayed sleep, sleep disorders, usage of sleeping pills, and loss of functionality during the day were assessed. The balance and static standing capability of the participants were tested. The functional reach of participants were tested by expecting them to lean forwardly as far as they can without taking a step, nor rising their heels. The fatigue feeling of the participants as everyday life were assessed. The posture of the participants was assessed on 13 regions at anterior, posterior and lateral views.
