Summary

According to sample size calculation and after achieving the inclusion criteria, sixty patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) of both genders will be enrolled in this study and their ages will be ranged from30s-40s; they will be selected from internal medicine-outpatient clinics, Cairo University Hospitals; they will participate in the study for 8 weeks, and randomly be assigned into two equal groups in number.

Group (A) (n =30) will receive calisthenics exercise three times /week for eight weeks, group (B) (n =30) will receive HIIT for three times /week for eight weeks and all patients in both groups will receive their prescribed medication (Statin 5mg ).

Conditions

  • Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Calisthenics exercise and High intensity interval training

1. The calisthenics exercise focuses on big muscles and can be combined with breathing exercises and applied rhythmically,10-15 for each exercise,1-3 sets,3 days/week for 8 weeks. It will be progressed gradually by increasing the number of sets, repetitions and by using elastic bands and weighted vest progression. 2. High intensity interval training will be on treadmill for eight weeks, three times/week based on the following program:-Warming up period for 5 min at intensity corresponding to 65-75% of heart rate maximum (HRmax).Training phase for 30 min divided into four sets of 4-min length each at intensity equals 85- 90% of HRmax interspersed by 3 minutes low intensity walking at the level of 65-75% of HRmax.Cooling down period for 5 min of at 50-60% of the HRmax
