| Objective In obese persons the ability to deliver oxygen to working muscle and the rate of its use by these muscles (aerobic capacity) may be reduced. The aim of this study is to compare the aerobic capacity, pulmonary functions in obese and non-obese women, and to assess the associaton between obesity and aerobic capactiy. Material and Methods Fourty six voluntary obese women who admitted to our department with a body mass index? 30 kg/m 2 and 24 non-obese women volunteers were participated in the study. Body mass index (BMI), waist hip ratio (WHR) and fat percentage were measured in both groups. Pulmonary function tests, maximum oxygen consumption (VO 2max), maximum exercise ventilation (VE max), anaerobic threshold (AT) and 6-minute walk test were evaluated. Results The age of obese and control group were 36.6 and 33.3 years respectively. BMI, WHR and fat percentage were … |
