Abstract

BackgroundUrban lifestyles have become increasingly sedentary, contributing to reduced physical fitness. Muay Thai, a high-intensity martial art, has been proposed as an effective exercise modality to improve aerobic capacity and muscle endurance. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different weekly Muay Thai training frequencies on VO₂ max and muscle endurance in non-athletic adults. MethodsA randomized experimental study with a pre-test–post-test design was conducted involving 40 non-athletic adults (aged 20–25 years). Participants were randomly allocated into two groups: training twice weekly (MT2X) or four times weekly (MT4X) for eight weeks. Outcomes included VO₂ max and upper, abdominal, and lower body muscle endurance. Baseline characteristics were described descriptively. Between-group differences in post-intervention outcomes were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), with baseline values included as covariates. ResultsAt baseline, VO₂ max, abdominal, and lower body muscle endurance were higher in the MT4X group. After adjustment for baseline values using ANCOVA, the MT4X group demonstrated significantly higher post-intervention VO₂ max compared with the MT2X group (adjusted mean difference, p<0.001). Significantly greater improvements favoring the MT4X group were also observed for upper body muscle endurance (push-ups, p<0.001), abdominal muscle endurance (sit-ups, p<0.001), and lower body muscle endurance (squats, p=0.018). ConclusionA higher frequency Muay Thai training program is effective in significantly improving participants' aerobic capacity and muscle endurance. Practitioners are able to choose their training frequency preference, since both frequencies provide similar adaptation.

Abstract

BackgroundPost-stroke fatigue (PSF) is a multifactorial impairment characterized by persistent tiredness not relieved by rest, and affects nearly half of stroke survivors, leading to poor physical endurance which limits recovery and overall quality of life. Limited evidence suggests that combining cognitive and physical training might help in reducing fatigue. Brain endurance training (BET) involves both cognitive training and physical training, targeting PSF. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of BET on fatigue and physical endurance among stroke survivors. MethodsA parallel group pilot randomized controlled trial was carried out in a private setting with 30 stroke survivors. Patients were randomized into two groups. Group A (n=15) received BET and group B (n=15) received conventional physiotherapy. Both groups underwent training for 65 minutes per day, thrice a week for eight weeks. Primary outcomes were Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). Statistical analysis was performed using the chi-square test and independent t-test. ResultsAt baseline, no significant differences were observed between groups for FSS and 6MWT (p>0.05). The BET group reported better reduction in fatigue (FSS: 5.39 ± 0.18 to 3.48 ± 0.16, p<0.001) and improvement in physical endurance (6MWT: 202.03 ± 4.35 to 273.35 ± 6.26, p<0.001) than the control group (FSS: 5.25 ± 0.10 to 4.19 ± 0.06) (6MWT: 200.53 ± 2.72 to 222.70 ± 3.64). ConclusionBrain endurance training is a feasible and safe approach for reducing fatigue and improving physical endurance among stroke survivors.
