“…Despite the variety of the intensity of pilates and other programs, in the current study, we observed the effect of pilates program on BMI and fasting blood glucose level. On the contrary, Ferreira et al (2009) stated that the impact of a Pilates exercise program might not cause any statistically significant change on total body mass for sedentary women [25]. Pan et al (1997) showed that only diet, only exercise, and diet plus exercise interventions led to similar changes in BMI and fasting blood glucose level in the long term follow up [26].…”

Background: Being overweight is a risk factor in developing many chronic diseases, and globally, the frequency of obesity rapidly increases. Our study aims to investigate the effects of an exercise program on Body Mass Index (BMI) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) level in overweight and obese subjects who have a diet program.Methods: 61 overweight and obese women subjects were included in this study. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The Control Group (CG) was included 32 women and received only a diet program. And, Experimental Group (EG) was included 29 women and received both diet and exercise program. A dietitian recorded weight, height, and BMI, and fasting blood glucose levels were recorded by blood test asking from subjects before and after program.Results: There was statistically significant decrease in BMI in both groups (p<0,05). When the CG and the EG group were compared, there was more decrease in the EG group. Fasting blood glucose level decreased statistically significantly in the exercise and diet groups (p <0.05). When the mean changes between the groups were compared, the difference in the FBG level in the exercise and diet groups was not statistically found even though it was higher than the dietary group. Conclusion:The 6-week exercise program which was applied in addition to diet programs for overweight and obese people led to improvement in BMI and FBG level, we think that a multidisciplinary team should follow these people.

“…The existing studies which show the effect of core stabilization exercises on body compositions give quite different results from each other and it is considered that this difference is due to the study groups. While studies on sedentary individuals show that in general positive effects have been achieved on body composition [16][17][18][19], this effect has not been shown in some other studies [20,21], however a change is mostly not seen in studies with athletes [22]. For example, a Pilates training program that consisted of 7 exercises of 2 to 3 sets with 15 to 20 repetitions each with a 45-sec rest interval twice a week for 6 weeks (in addition to basketball team training), was not sufficient to change body composition in young basketball athletes [23].…”

Urpose: Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks core training program on some physiological and physical parameters of handball team’s female players. Material and Methods: Volunteers were separated two groups as CTG (training group) and CG (control group). CTG was applied core strength training 30 min sessions 8 weeks and 3 days per week additionally handball trainings. CG wasn’t applied any core training. Effects of different core training regimes were compared after eight weeks with repeated measures MANOVA for the tests. Results: Neither group demonstrated difference for body composition measurements for repeated test scores and between groups comparisons. Significant difference was found BFP (body fat percentage) parameters on CTG. Sprint, agility, SLJ (standing long jump) scores did not increase in any groups and no difference was found between groups. Significance was found in VJ (vertical jump), back and leg strength, right and left hand grip strength, flexibility, balance parameters on CTG. Also significance was found in all core parameters on CTG. Conclusions: Results indicate that core trainings were very effective on performance based features especially on strength and core stability. So these exercises should be included in the training programs of female handball players.

“…Many studies (Vergili, 2012;Pinar, 2014;Colakoglu, 2008;Nindl, 2017;Kieres and Plowman, 1989;Mosher et al, 1998;Rogers and Gibson, 2009;Mehdizadeh, 2015;Noormohammadpour et al, 2012;Cruz-Ferreira et al, 2009) show that there are positive improvements as a result of calisthenics exercises. Some studies (Epstein, 1996;Kloubec, 2010, Segal et al, 2004Kalaycioglu, 2012;Sekendiz et al, 2007) show that there is no statistically significant difference in calcific exercise.…”

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of calisthenics exercise on body fat percentage and sportive performance in swimmers. 30 swimmers between 12 and 14 years of age participated in the study voluntarily. The participants were divided into 3 groups. In the first group, 10 swimmers performed calisthenics exercise on stable ground and (4-5 units) swimming training, in the second group 10 swimmers performed calisthenics exercise on unstable ground and (4-5 units) swimming training and in the third group 10 swimmers performed (4-5 units) swimming training. The study lasted 8 weeks, at least 7 hours a week. Height, body weight, body mass index, body fat percentage, flexibility, 30 meters speed, agility, back and leg strenght, crunch, push-ups and plank measurements were taken. Statistical analysis of the results was conducted in the IBM SPSS 19 package program. There were significant differences in flexibility, 30 meters speed, agility, back and leg strength, crunch, push-up and plank values at p<0.05 level. There is no significant difference in body fat percentage. Based on this data, it can be said that it will provide benefits in terms of health and performance gain in the implementation of regular calisthenics exercise three times a week, 60 minutes in each training unit and eight weeks and more. In addition, it is thought that providing the variety of exercise modes in the implementations in time (rope jumping, elastic bands, step, health balls) will provide benefits in terms of implementations.
