All training sessions began with a 5- to 7-minute warm- up (consisting low-intensity walking and running, and dynamic mobility exercises) and active recovery of 4- to 5-minute (based on stretching and relaxation exercises). Sessions lasted approximately 50 minutes (warm-up and cold down included), with an overall weekly volume of 105-120 minutes.

The circular training method was used in the resistance training phase. During the aerobic training phase, a series of movements from moderate intensity to vigorous intensity was performed.

The RT lasted approximately 20-25 min per session and included two sets of 8-20 repetitions, with a rest interval of 1-2 min. The resistance training program was performed using the circuit training method in which two or three sets were performed. The RT exercises included: squat, barbell bent-over row, overhead press, plank, lateral pull down, triceps push down, barbell curl, leg extension, leg curl, lunge, barbell bench press, crunches etc.

Similar to the active comparator group, but the order of the training reverse.

The circular training method was used in the resistance training phase. During the aerobic training phase, a series of movements from moderate intensity to vigorous intensity was performed. The step loading periodization principle was taken into account in both resistance training and aerobic exercises.

The RT lasted approximately 20-25 min per session and included two sets of 8-20 repetitions, with a rest interval of 1-2 min. The RT exercises included: squat, barbell bent-over row, overhead press, plank, lateral pull down, triceps push down, barbell curl, leg extension, leg curl, lunge, barbell bench press, crunches etc.

For the aerobic training: Intensity was established between 50-65% and 80-85% of HRmax for both groups (SAG and ASG). Aerobic training includes walking and running periods and was carried out on a 400 m outdoor track. In periodization, especially 1st-4th.

To measure the BF%, a bioelectrical impedance analysis was used. The participants will be instructed to stand barefoot on the bioelectrical impedance analysis devices (seca mBCA 515, Hamburg, Germany).The device measures the body composition and includes a platform with handrails and electrodes that measure the impedance passed through the pairs of hands and feet while standing. Impedance was measured over 75 s with a current of 100 μA at a frequency range between 1 kHz and 1000 kHz and a capacity of 360 kg. Waist circumference measurement at the umbilicus and level physical activity level were inputted to indirectly estimate the body composition.

1-mile walk-run performance test was used. The aim of this test is to cover a distance of one mile in the shortest possible time. Participants can alternate between walking and running as desired; however, they should be encouraged to cover the distance as quickly as feasible. The time elapsed to cover a mile distance, measured in minutes and seconds. During the testing and recovery the heart rate of the participants was monitored with a heart rate sensor (Polar Verity Sense; Kempele, Finland). Polar Verity Sense can be connected to a sports watch or app via Bluetooth®, ANT+, and internal memory to instantly track your training or view the data after training. As a result, the participant's time for completing the 1-mile test was tracked using a smart phone GPS system. The validity of the device has previously been reported previously[27]. The participants' MaxVO2 values were calculated using the formulas below.

a spirometer device (Minispir®, PC-based Spirometer with Oximetry option, Italy) will be used to measure the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1).
