Abstract:
Background: Obesity is accumulation of excessive fat in adipose tissue due to which endurance is decreased leading to negative impact on cardiovascular endurance. The prevalence of obesity in females is more than in males that is 44.7%. Obesity leads to decrease in endurance and thus negative impact on cardiovascular endurance. VO2max is common measure of cardiopulmonary fitness. Endurance training leads to increased mitochondrial activity which decreases lactic acid accumulation at given VO2 and improving performance by enhancing fat oxidation. Fartlek training is a speed play which leads to improve the endurance capacity. Thus this study was aimed to find the effectiveness of Fartlek training on maximum oxygen consumption in young obese females. Material and Methodology: 30 subjects with obesity class I (n=30) were selected in this study, with age group 18-25 years based on inclusion and exclusion criteria with their consent. Fartlek training was given 4 days per week for 5 weeks. Queens College step test was used to assess the pre and post effects of the training. Results: Fartlek training showed significant effect on maximum oxygen consumption. Mean pre queens college step test of young obese females receiving Fartlek training was 39.2. Mean post queens college step test for the same was 42.2. The mean difference pre and post queens college step up test is zero (p=0.000). Conclusion: The study concluded that there was significant effect of Fartlek training on maximum oxygen consumption in young obese females. Key words: Obesity, young females, Cardiovascular endurance, Fartlek training, Queens College step test.

Abstract:
A number of submaximal step tests have been developed to predict maximal aerobic capacity. Because step height may influence biomechanical efficiency and heart rate, step tests based on subjects' stature may more accurately predict maximal aerobic capacity. Eighteen women performed the Queens College step test and a modified Queens College step test. The modified step test was performed with the height of the bench set even with the height of the foot at a knee angle of 90°. Analysis of the data indicated a lower recovery heart rate following this test ( p<.05). Further, correlations between maximal aerobic capacity and recovery heart rate for both tests were moderate ( r = −.80 and −.75, respectively). Our results suggest that step tests based on subjects' stature do not more accurately predict aerobic capacity than those using a standardized bench height.

Abstract:
Background: The Queens College Step Test is used to determine aerobic fitness. Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR) is the maximum rate of forceful exhalation following full inspiration. PEFR primarily reflects bronchial airflow and depends on the voluntary effort and muscular strength of the individual. Studies that correlate ventilatory capacity with body fat percentage are rare in published literature in Nepalese settings. Body fat percentage is regarded as a better indicator of obesity recently. Hence, this study aims to find an association between post-exercise change in PEFR and body adiposity in the context of Nepal.
 Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out from 20th July 2019 to 15th November in the laboratory of Clinical Physiology of Maharajgunj Medical Campus. Body fat percentage was measured by using OMRON BF 214. Pre-exercise PEFR of each subject was recorded by using Wright’s peak flow meter. Post-exercise PEFR was also recorded after three minutes of Queen’s College step test, which is the submaximal exercise test, and change in PEFR was calculated and correlated with body fat percentage.
 Result: The study showed a negative correlation of change in PEFR with body fat percentage (r=-0.324; P<0.001). A significant difference (P = 0.002) was observed between different quartiles of body fat percentage. A highly significant difference (P = 0.003) was noted with the first and fourth quartiles.
 Conclusion: Less ventilatory adjustment in response to exercise was noted in subjects with more body fat percentage compared to those with less body fat percentage.

Abstract:
El sedentarismo es un factor de riesgo cardiovascular de gran importancia, por lo que conociendo el nivel de consumo de oxígeno máximo (VO2max), se pueden realizar mejoras en los niveles de actividad física y del ejercicio. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar la relación que existe entre la ergoespirometría y Queen’s College Step Test en hombres sanos y físicamente activos de los programas deportivos de una universidad de Bogotá – Colombia, debido a que el Queen’s College Step Test no ha sido validado en población colombiana.Los participantes fueron 52 hombres (Rango edad 17-35 años) a quienes se les realizaron cada una de las pruebas; se analizaron los resultados aplicando el coeficiente de correlación de Spearman, el cual fue débil con un r=0.312; generando una correlación poco significativa y una recomendación desfavorable en esta población.
