Summary

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.

Detailed description

Upon hospitalization for their bariatric surgery (bypass or sleeve), subjects will sign their informed consent and be included in the study. Six weeks' post-surgery, the subjects will be randomized in one of the 2 groups (Control group CG or Adapted Physical Activity group APAG). Patients in both groups will have 3 postoperative visits one at 6 weeks (V1), one at 18 weeks (V2) and one at 30 weeks (V3). During these visits, they will undergo the same assessments (body composition, physical condition, quality of life). Patients in the CG will receive standard hospital management. Patients in APAG will follow the same management and will also follow a 3-month physical activity program 3 times a week between V1 and V2. Then, between V2 and V3, no APA program will be offered to both groups. The subjects will evaluate during each visit V1, V2 and V3: * body composition, * physical condition, * quality of life * daily physical activity

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Physical activity	Between V1 and V2 (i.e. 12 weeks), the APAG (Adapted Physical Activity Group) will participate at a physical training program, 3 sessions of 1h30 per week consisting of endurance activities (60-75% of VO2 peak) and muscle strengthening while the CG will not perform any controlled physical training program. Then, between V2 and V3, no APA (Adapted Physical Activity) program will be offered to both groups.
