ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Exercise is essential for the prevention of many cardiovascular illnesses, for promoting good health, and for recovering from a disease episode. Aerobic activities are suitable for these kinds of exercises. Numerous techniques are available for aerobic exercise, such as walking, cycling, jogging, and running.
OBJECTIVE: To study the comparison between 12 min of plain surface walking vs12-minute treadmill walking vs12 min ergometer cycling on Exertion level
METHODS: A cross- sectional study was conducted with Seventeen normal healthy individuals in age group between 18-40 yrs were recruited in study. Participants were excluded if they had musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and neurological disorders. Perceived exertion is assessed by RPE scale (open epi software) was used for statistical analyses
RESULT: In the present study of 17 subjects, the mean age group was 22.8± 1.93, height 162.9±2.56, weight 56.65 ±5.6 This Study observed extremely significant difference when plain surface walking was compared with treadmill walking and plain surface walking was compared with cycle ergometer (P<0.001). the difference between cycle ergometer and treadmill walking was not significant
CONCLUSION: Our findings indicates that Exertion levels are minor in plain surface walking than treadmill walking and bicycle ergometer
Key words: Exertion level, RPE, Exercise
