Depression and obesity and its associated complications represent some of the main health problems and they’re both associated with physical inactivity (Stein, 2005).

Even more important, several of these factors are interrelated.
Reduced feelings of depression and anxiety, contribution to a psychological wellbeing and life quality in general (Laperriere, Ironson, Antoni, Schneiderman, Klimas, e Fletcher, 1994; Topp, 1989).
Better humor (Anspaugh, 1996)
Some psychological benefits have been attributed to biochemical changes (Neale, 1990).
Better physical self-perception, self-esteem and self-efficacy (Biddle et al, 2000; Skrinar, 2003).
Depressed people have less strength, endurance and low capacity for physical work when compared to the population in general (Martinsen, 2005; Scully, Kremer, Meade, Graham, e Dudgeon,1998).
In longitudinal studies physically active people have a reduced tendency to develop depression (Strawbridge, Deleger, Toberts, & Kaplan, 2002; Martinsen, 2005)
Gastric Banding and Exercise

More research is needed to determine FITT for this type of population (Livhits et al. 2010)
Exercise after surgery increases weight loss by 4%
Training PrinciplesRESPECT them always
1. Overload (development is based on demands)
2. Variety (vary your workout)
3. Adaptation (the body doesn’t change during the workout)
