Brief Summary: We are comparing higher cerebral functions including cognitive flexibility inhibitory control and working memory in healthy young adults between a group of acute aerobic exercise and a control group
Detailed Description: The objective of this study is to compare cognitive flexibility inhibitory control and working memory in healthy young adults between two groups a group undergoing acute aerobic exercise and a control group

Methodology

Study Design A Randomized Controlled Trial Study Setting The Physiology Laboratory at Khyber Medical College Peshawar Study Duration The study will last for three months Sample Size The study will include 19 participants in each group - the Exercising group E-Group and the Control group C-Group

Healthy young people between 18-25 years who are non-smokers will be included Sampling The enrollment in the Randomised Control Trial will be conveniently based wherein all those who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled as per study numbers A lottery method will be adopted for randomization

Procedure

The first step is to take ethical approval from the Institutional Research Ethical Review Board Following which after taking informed consent from the participants the enrolled participants will be randomly allocated to 2 groups A demographic questionnaire will be filled This will be followed by a general physical examination

Both groups will be familiarized with the executive function tasks while the E-group will have an additional session regarding the exercise protocol

Both groups will have an initial assessment of executive functions using online psytoolkit followed by intervention The E-group will undergo 30 minutes of treadmill walking at 60-65 of HRmax with continuous recording of heart rate and ECG via the Biopac system while the control group session will consist of sitting idly and quietly in the laboratory doing nothing with continuous recording of heart rate and ECG via the Biopac student lab system

In the end executive function tests will be assessed before and after exercise using online psytoolkitorg The data will be extracted via a properly designed proforma and on Microsoft Excel sheet

Statistical Analysis

Statistical Package for Social Sciences SPSS250 will be used for statistical analysis
