Detailed Description
The study was planned as a randomized controlled study. Participants will be divided into 3 groups by simple randomization method. groups will be named as aerobic, yoga and resistance exercise groups. 12-week exercise protocols will be applied to all participants. Participants before and after treatment; The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, the McGill Pain Questionnaire for pain assessment, the Chalder Fatigue Scale to assess their fatigue level, will be filled in by the participants before and after the study. The data obtained will be statistically analyzed.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: aerobic group only a separate aerobic exercise will be given |
Other: aerobic
We can think of aerobic exercise as a low-intensity long-term activity using large muscle groups (between 60-80% of maximal heart rate). For example; includes activities such as walking, cycling, jogging, aerobic dancing, swimming.
An average of 50 minutes of exercise per day will be required, 3 days a week.
|
| Experimental: resistant group aerobic and resistance exercises will be given |
Other: aerobic
We can think of aerobic exercise as a low-intensity long-term activity using large muscle groups (between 60-80% of maximal heart rate). For example; includes activities such as walking, cycling, jogging, aerobic dancing, swimming.
An average of 50 minutes of exercise per day will be required, 3 days a week.
Other: resistant
Resistance exercises are the whole of the exercises in which effort is made against the weight and the weight is lifted. Exercises with therabands, dumbbells or body weight will be given. The exercises will be done 2 days a week for an average of 30-40 minutes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire [14 weeks]
It assesses the impact of fibromyalgia on the patient's health and functional abilities. High scores indicate that the disease affects the person more. The total score can be between 0-80. A score of 80 indicates high influence.
- Chalder Fatigue Scale [14 weeks]
It is an easy, fast and useful scale that evaluates the fatigue felt by the individual during the last 1 month by self-report. High scores indicate that the severity of fatigue is high.
