Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PURPOSE: Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is typically lower in overweight and obese populations compared to individuals of normal weight. Combined interventions of diet and aerobic exercise may improve HRQOL in this population, but the physiological predictors of these improvements are not well known. The primary purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of weight loss and aerobic exercise on HRQOL as measured by the SF-36 in a population of overweight and obese individuals. Secondly, we sought to determine the impact of physiological mediators, such as body composition, weight loss, aerobic fitness, and insulin, glucose, and cholesterol levels on improvements in HRQOL. METHODS: The present study utilized data from the weight loss phase of the Prescribed Exercise to Reduce Recidivism After Weight Loss pilot (PREVAIL-P) study. This phase lasted 10 weeks and consisted of aerobic exercise on a treadmill, the OPTIFAST medically supervised weight loss program, and weekly lifestyle education classes. All measurements were taken at baseline and 10 weeks, following the weight loss intervention. For primary outcome measures, HRQOL was assessed using the SF-36v2. For secondary measures, weight was measured using a physician beam scale, aerobic fitness was assessed using a modified Balke protocol with a metabolic cart, body composition was assessed with a DEXA scan, and a blood draw sent to LabCorp was used to measure insulin, glucose, and cholesterol levels. RESULTS: The sample included 36 participants (mean age=46 years; 80.6% female). We observed significant improvements in all domains of HRQOL and CVD risk factors, with a mean clinically significant weight loss of 9.3%. Improvements in several of the SF-36 domains were significantly associated with weight loss, reductions in cholesterol, and changes in body composition. When controlling for weight loss, all correlations became non-significant except the association between LDL and vitality. All HRQOL improvements were also significantly correlated with baseline SF-36 scores. CONCLUSION: Results from the present study suggest that a combined OPTIFAST weight loss and aerobic exercise training program may lead to improvements in HRQOL, which may be dependent upon baseline HRQOL levels and overall weight loss. Beneficial improvements in HRQOL did not appear to be limited by lean mass changes with weight loss. This knowledge will help in designing effective treatment programs and interventions to improve HRQOL in overweight and obese individuals.

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.
