The effectiveness of aqua-based exercises on some biochemical variables and fat percentageIn people with obesity

Abstract

The research aims to identify Detecting the effectiveness of water-based exercises on some biochemical variables in people with obesity, The researcher used the experimental method according to a one-group design with two pre- and post-tests. The research sample was selected from individuals with obesity whose ages ranged between (30-34) years. The research tools included measuring some biochemical variables and fat percentage. A training program based on exercises was designed in The aqueous medium, and the implementation of the program took a period of eight weeks. After completing the implementation of the program and conducting dimensional measurements, the data was collected and analyzed using statistical methods represented by the t-test for correlated samples, measuring the effect size according to Cohen, and extracting the percentage of improvement in the variables under study. The study reached the following conclusions: The training program based on exercises in an aqueous environment was highly effective in improving the biochemical variables and the percentage of fats identified in the research, The highest rates of improvement in the variables under study were in the order (low-density cholesterol, fat percentage, total cholesterol, body mass index, high-density cholesterol), The study recommended emphasizing the use of exercises in the water environment and using them in training programs because of their physical and recreational benefits for the body
