Physical Activity and Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery indeed leads to significant weight loss, reduces mortality risk, obesity-associated comorbidities (Wolfe et al., 2016) and improves functional physical abilities (Herring et al., 2016). Because these benefits are related to decreased energy intake, the investigators aim to optimize them by combining them with supervised adapted physical activity practice. So, the aim of this clinical trial is to measure the effects of a physical training program on physical fitness, body composition and quality of life of obese women who have undergone bariatric surgery.
