Physiological relevance of aerobic exercise training for the preparation of bariatric surgery candidates

| Sumario: | Bariatric surgery is popular among clinicians to treat obesity because of its high impact on body weight reduction. However, the fast rate of weight loss has several consequences, such as loss of muscle mass and strength, and functional capacity. Therefore, preoperative interventions are needed to secure the surgery’s success, where physical exercise could be an effective intervention. Nevertheless, the most effective preoperative exercise prescription, along with its potential post-surgical carry-over effects, is still unclear. Recent studies have highlighted that exercise programs that differ, for instance, in intensity, induce differential metabolic benefits, that seem to be tissue-specific. This might be clinically relevant since it has been described that obesity-related metabolic impairments are not stereotypical in humans.
This brief review analyses some tissue-specific disturbances derived from obesity, and how aerobic exercise programs, particularly high-intensity interval training and moderate-intensity constant training could elicit differential benefits, particularly in candidates to undergo bariatric surgery. |
