  • Abstract:
  • Obesity is a growing global health concern, particularly among young adults, with significant risks for chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, and joint disorders. Obesity is commonly classified into Grade 1 (BMI 30-34.9) and Grade 2 (BMI 35-39.9), each presenting distinct challenges in management. Physical activity has long been recognized as a key intervention for reducing excess body weight and improving overall health. This study aims to evaluate the effect of a structured gym-based physical activity programme on individuals with Grade 1 and Grade 2 obesity, aged 20 to 30 years. A total of 50 participants were enrolled and assessed before and after a 9 week gym intervention program. Key outcomes measured included body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage, cardiovascular fitness, and psychological well-being. Results indicated significant reductions in BMI and body fat percentage, as well as improvements in cardiovascular health and physical fitness across both obesity grades. Especially, individuals with Grade 1 obesity exhibited a more noticeable response to the intervention than those with Grade 2 obesity. These findings highlight the importance of structured physical activity in managing obesity and improving health outcomes for young adults. The study emphasizes the need for customizeded exercise programmes to address the specific needs of individuals with varying degrees of obesity, promoting long-term health benefits and weight management strategies.
