Summary

This study examines whether doing moderate resistance exercises in the morning can improve sleep quality and well-being in young adults. Participants with different daily activity patterns (morning or evening types) will take part in an 8-week online exercise program. The study will compare how exercise affects sleep, mood, and daily rhythm across these groups.

Moderate-Intensity Resistance Exercise Program

An 8-week, moderate-intensity resistance exercise program performed in the morning, 3 sessions/week on nonconsecutive days. Each 45-min session includes: 5-min warm-up (jumping jacks, high knees, running in place, hip hinge with reach, standing twists); 35-min progressive resistance training (Chest Press (Modified Push-Ups), Leg Press (Wall Sits with Squats), Squats, Shoulder Press (Resistance Band Overhead Press), Lat Pulldown (Resistance Band Pull-Downs), Rowing (Resistance Band Rows), Lower Back (Superman Holds), and Abdominals (Plank with Crunches)); and 5-min cool-down (Chest and Shoulder Stretch, Kneeling Hip Flexor Stretch, Standing Hamstring Stretch, Child's Pose with Side Stretch, and Cat-Cow Stretch ). Muscle soreness tracked after each session using 7-point Likert scale. Standardized videos, adherence checklists, resistance bands provided. Both chronotype groups complete identical sessions, outcomes compared.
