The impact of both resistance and aerobic training on weight control management.

Obesity has been appearing as a challenging health problem for years all over the world. For this reason, numerous treatment methods have been carried out, and among them, physical exercises have been underlined. While aerobic activities such as cycling and jogging assist in weight loss in obese patients, recent studies recommend that both anaerobic exercises are beneficial and should be combined. In the search for scientific literature related to this review, the US National Library of Medicine (PubMed) used MEDLINE and SportDiscus data, and the terms "aerobic exercise", "anaerobic exercise", "physical exercise", and "obesity" were used. The relevant literature has also taken its source from the research of relevant articles from reference lists derived from data studies. Physical exercise has a significant role in treating and preventing obesity and overweight. In this sense, since aerobic and anaerobic exercises have been reported to provide benefits, they should be merged, and this combination should be integrated into exercise programs for obese patients. Although generally aerobic exercise is recommended since it might present actual results in obesity disease, recent studies point out that anaerobic exercises are also practical. Aerobic and anaerobic exercises together provide far better consequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
