Experimental: Periodized aerobic interval training
The experimental groups will participate in a 16 week, three times a week based-program of periodized aerobic interval training that consist in warming [5 minutes of general stretching and 5 minutes of walking on treadmill with heart rate less than 20 percent of heart rate reserve (HHR)], followed by periodized aerobic interval training on treadmill, and cooling down [5 minutes of walk in treadmill with a heart rate less than 20 percent of HRR and 5 minutes of rest]
|
Behavioral: Periodized aerobic interval training
The periodized training program consist in 3 phases: light (I) (training range varying between 20 to 39% of heart rate reserve and active recuperation of 19% of heart rate reserve); moderate (II) (training range varying between 40 to 59% of heart rate reserve and active recuperation of 30% of heart rate reserve) and high (III) (training range varying between 70 to 90 % of heart rate reserve and active recuperation of 50% of heart rate reserve). |
No Intervention: Control group
Participants in the control group will be instructed not to take part in any regular exercise programs during the study period.

- Anthropometric parameter: hit waist ratio [ Time Frame: 16 week after allocation ]
- Anthropometric parameter: abdominal circumference [ Time Frame: 16 week after allocation ]
- Anthropometric parameter: body mass index [ Time Frame: 16 week after allocation ]Measured by weight and height
