What this Trial Is About
This research aims to compare the daily living activities and upper extremity exercise capacity between individuals with high body mass index (BMI) and those with normal BMI. The study includes participants aged 18 to 65 years with either a BMI of 25 or greater or a BMI within the normal range. It focuses on understanding how body weight categories may affect physical functions and exercise capacity. Participants are grouped based on their BMI into high BMI and normal BMI groups. Those with high BMI have a body mass index of 25 kg/m2 or higher, while those with normal BMI have a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2. The study does not specify additional interventions but involves evaluating exercise capacity and daily living activities. During the study, researchers assess participants' upper extremity exercise capacity and their ability to perform daily living activities, both measured on the first day. Volunteers undergo tests to evaluate these physical functions. The study excludes individuals with uncontrolled medical conditions, serious diseases, or those unable to cooperate with testing to ensure participant safety and accurate results.
