Programa de intervención en fuerza y resistencia para reducir el riesgo cardiometabólico en personal administrativo con sobrepeso: estudio de caso en la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana

Abstract

Sedentary behavior is a risk factor that affects health in the workplace. This study proposes the implementation of a physical exercise program to reduce cardiometabolic risk in two individuals with high levels of sedentary behavior. A quasi-experimental pre-post design was used, including sedentary behavior measurements with accelerometry, biochemical analysis, and physical tests such as the Euro fitness Test. One participant did not complete the intervention. The results showed improvements in strength, flexibility, lipid profile, and a reduction in sedentary time, demonstrating the program's effectiveness in promoting healthy habits.
