Background: Obesity is still one of the most serious health risks facing today's children and adolescents. Yoga has grown in popularity in the United States, and it appears to be a promising way to help adults with weight loss and management. However, research on yoga programmes aimed at weight loss in children or adolescents is limited. Objectives: The current study provided a systematic review of yoga-based interventions for weight loss in children and adolescents who were overweight or obese. Methods: The authors performed a systematic review of articles obtained from the databases Alt HealthWatch, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, PubMed, and Web of Science. Inclusion criteria were studies that used yoga as a primary component, targeted overweight or obese children or adolescents, measured body weight or BMI as an outcome, used any type of study design, and were published in English-language peer-reviewed journals. Results: The inclusion criteria were met by nine studies in total. The majority of studies (n = 5) were conducted in the United States and implemented in schools (n = 5). Three of the studies examined were randomized controlled trials, and two had attrition rates approaching 50%.
The principle of the study was to access to influence of sand training on explosive power and aerobic power of college men students. Thirty (n=30) college men football students was selected from Chennai district, TamilNadu, India the age were ranged should be 18 to 24 years. The selected subject was assigned into two equal groups with fifteen subjects with each group. The experimental group-I sand training and group-II control group. The experimental groups were under 8 weeks of training and control group was not under experimentation. Explosive power was measured by Sargent jump test aerobic power was measured by Margaria-Kalamen Test was taken for both groups. The initial and the final readings derived from the experimental and the control group underwent a procedure of statistical analysis using ANOVA. The confidence level was 0.05. Result of the investigation shows sand training have significant improvement on explosive power and aerobic power when compare to the control group
Background: The stressful situation may result in obesity, which is linked to a variety of diseases. Aims: The current study sought to determine whether yoga has an effect on body composition reduction. Methods: The current study included 95 (n = 95) healthy male volunteers aged 18-24 years, with 35 (n = 35) volunteers excluded. The remaining 60 volunteers (n = 60) were divided into two groups at random: (a) Yoga Group (n = 30) and (b) Control Group (n = 30). The yoga group received 60 minutes of yoga training per day, six days per week for 12 weeks, while the control group received no yoga training. Body composition parameters were assessed in both groups at baseline, before yoga training (0 week), and after the training (12 weeks). Results: Significant reduction (P < 0.001) in the percentage of body fat; levels were noted in the yoga group after 12 weeks when compared to baseline data (0 week). However, there was no significant difference in height, weight, body mass index, body surface area and lean body mass among the yoga group after 12 weeks when compared to baseline data.
The College football players were studied in order to determine what effect core training has on certain physical variables. Twenty-three football players between the ages of 17 and 23 from the Chengalpattu district of Tamil Nadu, India were randomly selected for this study. Each group had fifteen participants. During the eight weeks that Gathering-1 underwent the core training, Gathering-2 acted as a control bunch, undergoing no additional training beyond their regular routine. Muscular strength and abdominal strength were the dependent variables. A sit-up test and a push-up test were used to test abdominal and muscular strength, respectively. The study used random group design pre- and post-tests. Following the training period of eight weeks, the collected data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA. Based on the results of the study on core training, college football players showed improvements in the physical variables.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
