Adapted Physical Activity Program After Sleeve Gastrectomy

Lille Catholic University

Overview

This study compares the ratio of lean mass losses over total body mass losses between patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy followed by physical activity training versus patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy only

This study will assess prospectively and objectively the potential benefits of a personalized and specific rehabilitation program designed for patients who undergone sleeve gastrectomy. This strategy will help to reduce fat mass and to limit lean mass loss, in order to prevent in the short term the overweight recurrence. Also,the improvement of physical and metabolic status is expected.

1.5 hours physical training sessions, twice a week for 1 year, under the supervision of a dedicated coach specialized in supporting overweighted patients. Typical training session organized for small groups (5 patients) will consist of aerobic exercises, muscular strengthening (4 peripheral members and abdominal muscular belt), followed by stretching exercises.
