Summary

This is a prospective interventional study. The investigators will include patients in clinical remission who are on stable treatment. These IBD patients will be followed to analyze the effects of physical activity on their inflammatory disease. Different exercises will be offered to two separate groups of randomly distributed patients: the first group will perform muscle building exercises while the other group will be offered aerobic exercises.There will also be a control group that does not initially benefit from a specific physical activity program. However, this group will be integrated into one of the other two groups after the 10-week follow-up. All three groups will perform the same baseline tests. These will be of different types: physical tests, biological tests and quality of life questionnaires.

Conditions

  • Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
  • Exercise Therapy

Interventions

OTHER

Endurance training

This group will perform aerobic type exercises. Initially, patients will perform continuous exercises of progressive intensity in order to adapt to this kind of effort. Next, we will introduce interval exercises.

OTHER

Resistance training

Patients in this group will perform lower limb strengthening exercises to improve the maximum strength of different muscle groups.
