1. OBESITY
Presented by :
Dr. Savita Khandelwal
(Physiotherapist)

2. WHAT IS OBESITY ?
Obesity is a medical condition in which
excess body fat has accumulated to the
extent that it may have a negative effect on
health.

3. CAUSE OF OBESITY
Obesity is most commonly caused by a
combination of excessive food intake, lack
of physical activity, and genetic
susceptibility.
A few cases are caused primarily by genes,
endocrine disorders, medications, or mental
illness.

4. All of us love to have a well-built bodies, or at least not to be
obese.
Obesity is not just a cosmetic concern, it's also a risk for some
health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes and the high
blood pressure and others.

5. I am sorry it looks dangerous but don’t panic, you can
prevent your health problems easily, and you can
lose weight through change the life and dietary style,
increase physical activity and others.

6. BODY TYPE: ARE YOU AN APPLE OR A PEAR?
Most women understand intuitively whether
their bodies tend to store fat around their
waists (forming an apple shape) or lower
down around their hips, thighs and buttocks
(forming a pear shape in women)

7. APPLE VS PEAR

8. BODY TYPE: ARE YOU AN APPLE OR A PEAR?
The overall effect of excess visceral fat is that it creates
a physical environment that is primed for heart disease
and stroke, and greatly increases the risk for certain
estrogen sensitive cancers such as post-menopausal
breast and endometrial cancer. This is why apple-
shaped women and men, who carry their weight around
their waists, have an increased risk of metabolic and
vascular diseases.

9. Now you want to know if you are obese or not, and this is
easy, all you want is to measure your weight in Kilograms (kg)
and your height in meters (m), and then use this formula

10. This formula will give you your body mass index (BMI). the
obesity is diagnosed when the (BMI) is 30 or more. now look to
this table below to know more about the (BMI).
BMI Result
Less than 18.5 Underweight
18.8-24.9 Normal
25-29.9 Overweight
30-40 Obese
More than 40 very obese

11. What are the complications of obesity?
Now is obesity dangerous, the answer is yes, and if you are obese you are at
risk to have one or more of a great number of obesity health problems.
including:
•Type 2 diabetes.
•High blood pressure.
•Stroke.
•Heart disease.
•Gallbladder disease.
•Osteoarthritis.
•poor wound healing.
•Sleep apnea,( dangerous sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops
and starts).
•High cholesterol and triglycerides.
•Metabolic syndrome.
•Cancer.

13. EXERCISES FOR OBESE
PEOPLE
 WARM UP
 CARDIO
 STRENGTHENING
 COOL DOWN

14. The warm-up should gently prepare the body for
exercises by gradually increasing the heart rate and
circulation; this will loosen the joints and increase
blood flow to the muscles. Stretching the muscles
prepares them for physical activity and prevents
injuries.

18. Walking on a treadmill works the same muscles
that walking on a track or outdoors does.
The main difference is that you can easily change
speed and incline.
 Walking on a treadmill can improve
cardiovascular health and burn calories leading to
weight loss.
TRADEMILL

19. TREADEMILL ON INCLINED POSITION
1
Working out on an
incline position
cause your lungs to
breath deeper &
increase blood flow
to heart & Lungs.
2
Walking up hill is
great way to work
your body & really
get heart pumping
without having to
crank up the speed.
3
Inclined level
muscle leg work
more compare to
normal.

20. AFFECTS OF TREADEMILL ON HOLDING
1
Holding treadmill handle also
negative affects your walking
& running posture, as it
cause you to slump forward
in a unnatural motion.
2
Holding on to the machine
make exercise easier & less
intense total number calorie
burn reduce.

21. MECHANISM OF TRADEMILL

22. STATIONARY BICYCLE

23. STATIONARY BICYCLE
Stationary bicycle enable you to
get your heart pumping without
putting stress on your joints, is
specially good for people who are
more than 50 pounds overweight.
Because it reduce mechanical
stress on the back hip , knee or

Stationary Bicycle count a
cardiovascular exercise.
Regular cardio exercise helps
lower BP & regulate Blood
Sugar & may prevent Heart
attack also.
Stationary Bicycle work out your

quads, biceps, triceps and even
your core.

27. STRENGTHENING
EXERCISES

28. WHAT IS WEIGHT TRAINING?
• It is the most common type of
strength training
• Develops the strength and size of
the skeletal muscles.
• Opposes force of gravity through
concentric and eccentric muscle
contraction

29. OVERALL BENEFITS OF WEIGHT TRAINING
Increased muscles strength
Tendon and Ligament strength
Bone density
Flexibility
Tone
Metabolic rate
Postural Support

30. STRENGTHENIN
G
45 Mins workout Fat burn
muscle energy use weight
lifting particular muscle group
work
Muscle bulk increase more
weight less repetition
Muscle bulk decrease more
repetition less weight

31. EXAMPLES OF GOOD
FORM AND BAD FORM

33. BAD FORM !!

35. WHY COOL DOWN?
