dc.description.abstractWith its multiple components, metabolic syndrome is a serious problem that adversely affects the quality of life. Exercise programs have proven to be quite effective alternatives to drug treatments with regard to preventive medicine. We investigated the effects of personal exercises that do not require a professional using physiological and biochemical parameters and OMNI scale. Adult males performed aerobic exercise with an intensity ranging between easy and somewhat hard on OMNI scale for 12 weeks. Physiological parameters, including weight, height, waist/hip ratio, body mass index (BMI), visceral fat rating (VFR)%, resting heart rate (RHR), blood pressure and biochemical parameters including serum fasting blood glucose (FG), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and C-reactive protein (C-RP) levels before and after exercise were recorded. There were significant differences in all physiological parameters (P<0.01) except diastolic pressure. Biochemical parameters showed similar significant changes (P<0.01). Exercise programs serve not only as alternatives to treatment with medications but also as part of preventive medicine. The results of this study suggest that the most significant handicaps of such programs, namely the need for a professional instructor or trainer and the perceived exertion issue, can be overcome by using the OMNI scale. Performing the most comfortable personal exercise program for him/herself will enable the person to get rid of the MetS components and improve the quality of life.
