Summary

This study will be conducted to compare between the effect of nonlinear and linear periodized training on quality of life in females with hypothyroidism.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

non linear periodization exercise

The non-linear periodized resistance training program follows a 12-week schedule with varying intensity levels across three training days per week. The intensity fluctuates between very light (VL), light (L), moderate (M), heavy (H), and very heavy (VH) workouts, distributed strategically throughout the week. Each training day implements different intensity levels, and an active rest day follows any workout session.

OTHER

linear periodization exercise

The linear periodization exercise program spans 12 weeks with systematically varied training parameters. During weeks 1-2, participants perform 3 sets of 10 repetitions, followed by 3 sets of 8 repetitions in weeks 3-4. The program progresses to 4 sets of 6 repetitions in weeks 5-6, then 3 sets of 6 repetitions during weeks 7-8. The final phases consist of 4 sets of 4 repetitions in weeks 9-10, concluding with 3 sets of 4 repetitions in weeks 11-12. Training loads advance through autoregulatory progression, where participants progress at their individual pace under supervision. While sets and repetitions remain fixed within each phase, load progression is determined by performance in the final set of each exercise, ensuring safe and effective advancement.

DRUG

medical treatment

The medical treatment will be received for 12 weeks.
