Özet:

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of regular physical exercises (step aerobic and resistance exercises) on physical properties and body compositions values of breast cancer patients in remission. In this study; sampling was formed three groups by 30 breast cancer female patients in remission that mean aged 53,13±6,45; step aerobic (n=11), resistance (n=10) and control (n=9); which completed anti-cancer cure in Akdeniz University Medical Faculty Hospital in the Medical Oncology Clinic. They were conducted as randomized controlled selection and homogeneous property. For patients in exercise groups, particular exercise programs (step aerobic and resistance) which take an hour in a day, theree days in a week, 12 weeks were applied, but control group were not included in exercise program. Physical properties; height, weight and BMI and body compositions; % Fat, Fat Mass, FFM, skinfold measurements (SF triceps, SF suprailiac, SF thigh, SF % Fat) were conducted to all patient groups before and after this study. It was cofirmed for research by Akdeniz University Medical Faculty Clinic Ethic Comittee in Researches. The results of the study, positive results were appeared on regular physical exercise on patients’ physical properties and body compositions values of breast cancer patients in remission. Our study was demonstrated similar results as actual literature. Positive results that decreases in BMI, % Fat, SF thigh in step aerobic exercise group, % Fat, SF thigh and SF % Fat values, increases in FFM values in resistance exercise group. However, negative results that increases in BMI, SF suprailiac values, decreases in FFM in control group.
