About this study

The majority of literature showed that level of physical activity is associated with Hb level. But there is paucity in the literature regarding the cause and effect relationship of PA and Hb. Literature shows lacking that there is any defined physical activity, which can affect the Hb concentration. According to literature, different studies conduct at Hb level in individuals with different diseases i.e. rheumatic arthritis, Diabetes mellitus etc. The aim of my study is to determining the cause and effect relationship of moderate physical activity on Hb level in healthy female population, one of the easiest moderate physical activity is brisk walk. Brisk walk is an aerobic exercise. People do get best physiological results of aerobic exercise with intensity of exercise 60-70% of the maximum pulse with longer time duration as well as increase frequency of exercise, which increase no of hemoglobin level due to this need more oxygen to performing physical activity in return basal metabolic rate increases and achieve physical fitness and gain relieve from the psychological problems.

Primary outcomes

  1. Hemoglobin level concentration

    Time frame: 6 week

    Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries iron. In adults,In study hemoglobin level will be measured in healthy females which will be less than 12.

  2. Physical activity readiness questionnaire (PAR-Q)

    Time frame: 6 week

    The Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) is a common method of uncovering health and lifestyle issues prior to an exercise programme starting. The questionnaire is short and easy to administer and reveals any family history of illness.

  3. Physical Fitness Test ( 12-minute run test)

    Time frame: 6 week

    The 12-minute run fitness test as an easy way to measure aerobic fitness .The Cooper 12-minute run test requires the person being tested to run or walk as far as possible in a 12-minute period. The objective of the test is to measure the maximum distance covered by the individual during the 12-minute period

  4. Physical Fitness Test( Shuttle run test)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    Shuttle Run is a test of agility, in which the participant runs back and forth between two parallel lines as fast as possible.

  5. Physical Fitness Test(Sit and reach test)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    The sit and reach test is a common measure of flexibility, and specifically measures the flexibility of the lower back and hamstring muscles.

  6. Physical fitness test(lateral plyometric test)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    Lateral plyometric jumps are advanced exercises that can be used to develop power and agility

  7. Physical fitness test(Push-ups)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    The upper body muscles that come into play in the pushup are the deltoids of the shoulders, the pectoral muscles of the chest, the triceps and biceps of the upper arm, and the erector spinae of the back.

  8. Perceived stress scale (PSS)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) is the most widely used psychological instrument for measuring the perception of stress. It is a measure of the degree to which situations in one's life are appraised as stressful.

  9. International physical activity Questionaire (IPAQ)

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    We are interested in finding out about the kinds of physical activities that people do as part of their everyday lives. The questions will ask you about the time you spent being physically active in the last 7 days.

  10. Quality of life SF-12 scale

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    The SF-12 is a self-reported outcome measure assessing the impact of health on an individual's everyday life. It is often used as a quality of life measure.

  11. VO2max

    Time frame: 6 weeks

    V̇O₂ max is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise; that is, exercise of increasing intensity. The name is derived from three abbreviations: "V̇" for volume, "O₂" for oxygen, and "max" for maximum.
