Exercise for Preventing the Metabolic Syndrome in Latinoamerican Amerindians

Despite exercise training decrease blood fasting glicaemy in 'average' terms, there is a wide inter-individual variability after exercise training explored mainly in adults but not in adults with prediabetes comorbidities. Thus, is yet unknown the effects and influence of the concurrent training (CT) eliciting responders (R) and non-responders (NR) cases (i.e., percentage of subjects who experienced a non-change/worsened response after training in some metabolic outcomes).

Treatment and study plan

Concurrent training (CT)

Behavioral

The core part of each session included resistance training (RT) followed by aerobic training exercises (for 50 and 30 minutes, respectively) and was preceded and followed by a 5-minute warm-up and cool-down with callisthenic movements.

    Change from baseline in Total cholesterol

  3. Blood pressure

    Time frame: Baseline and 20-weeks immediately after the interventions ends

    Change from baseline in Blood pressure

Secondary outcomes

  1. Body mass

    Time frame: Baseline and 20-weeks immediately after the interventions ends

    Change from Baseline in body mass

  2. Waist circumference

  4. Lean mass

    Time frame: Baseline and 20-weeks immediately after the interventions ends

    Change from Baseline in lean mass

  5. Heart rate at rest
