Respiratory disorders may be one of the adverse effects of sedentary lifestyle. This study investigated respiratory functions (FEV1, FVC and PEFR) and anthropometric parameters (body weight and body mass index) of healthy young males and females participating in moderate aerobic exercise. Forty young healthy untrained non-athletes, twenty males and twenty females (age, 25 ± 5.6 years; body weight, 65 ± 4.0 kg; body height, 176.9 ± 2.5 cm) volunteered to participate in this study. The exercise regimen was of moderate intensity lasting for 20 min daily on a treadmill consistently at the speed of 13 km/h for 14 days. The weight and height of participants were measured using medical scale and wall-mounted stadiometer respectively. The forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) were assessed using digital spirometer. The results showed a significant (p |
