Primary Outcome Measures
Secondary Outcome Measures
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
Title: 30-Meter Sprint Time | Description: The time required to complete a 30-meter maximal sprint. The best (fastest) of two trials is recorded.
Unit of Measure: Seconds | Baseline and 8 weeks |
Title: Upper Body Muscular Endurance | Description: The total number of correct push-ups completed within a 30-second period.
Unit of Measure: Number of repetitions | Baseline and 8 weeks |
Lower Body Explosive Power | Description: The distance jumped forward from a standing position, measured from the starting line to the point of contact at landing.
Unit of Measure: Centimeters | Baseline and 8 weeks |
Body Fat Percentage | Description: The percentage of total body fat as measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) using the TANITA TBF-300 device.
Unit of Measure: Percentage (%) | Baseline and 8 weeks |
| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
Change in Body Mass Index (BMI) | Description: Calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared (kg/m2).Unit of Measure: kg/m2 (Weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m².) | Baseline and 8 weeks |
Change in Physical Activity Level | Description: Measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). This questionnaire assesses the time spent being physically active in the last 7 days.
Unit of Measure: MET-minutes per week Full Scale Name: International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) Minimum Value: 0 (Theoretically) Maximum Value: No upper limit (varies according to the individual's reported activity duration).
Interpretation: Higher scores indicate a better outcome. A higher MET-minute/week value suggests that the individual has a more active and physically healthier lifestyle. | Baseline and 8 weeks |
Change in Quality of Life Score | Description: Measured using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey. Higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life.
Unit of Measure: Score on a scale Full Scale Name: Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) Minimum Value: 0 Maximum Value: 100 Interpretation: Higher scores indicate a better outcome. A score of 100 represents complete health and high quality of life, while a score of 0 represents significant health limitations and low quality of life. | Baseline and 8 weeks |
