About this trial
This study investigating the effects of mat pilates on body awareness and physical activity levels in sedentary women transitioning to adulthood, 27 control groups and 27 mat pilates exercise groups will be included. The groups will be compared at the end of an 8-week exercise program. Participants' socio-demographic characteristics, body awareness (using the Body Awareness Questionnaire), and physical activity level (using the Tegner Physical Activity Questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire short-form scales) will be assessed.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes

Body Awareness Survey
Developed in 1989, the BAS is a measure that assesses an individual's sensitivity to normal or abnormal physical states and processes, incorporating physical, emotional, and social elements, and questioning sensitivity to physical reactions . The BAS \[8\] has been found to be the measure with the best performance. Participants were asked to rate each of the 18 statements on a scale of 1 to 7 (1 = Not true for me at all, 7 = Very true for me). The total score from the questionnaire can be 126 or at least 18. Rating in the questionnaire is based on the total score. The higher the score, the better the level of body awareness.
Time frame
1 assessment before exercise, 1 assessment after exercise (8 weeks).2
Tegner Activity Survey (TAS)
TAS is scored on a scale of 0-10 based on daily living and sports activities. There are 11 activity levels on this scale. It determines patients' activity levels by inquiring about their daily living activities, leisure activities, or competitive sports. On this scale, level 0 represents complete disability, level 4 represents participation in recreational activities, and level 10 represents elite athletes.
Time frame
1 assessment before exercise, 1 assessment after exercise(8 weeks).3
International Physical Activity Questionnaire - Short Form (IPAQ-SF)
UFAA-KF aims to compare the physical activity levels of individuals aged 18-65 over the past week. The long form of the questionnaire consists of 27 items that allow for a detailed assessment of housework, occupational activity, gardening, transportation, and leisure activities. The short form of the questionnaire consists of 7 items that determine the time spent walking, sitting, and engaging in moderate and vigorous activities. The UFAA-KF, consisting of seven questions that collect information about the time participants spent on vigorous physical activity, moderate physical activity, walking, and sitting in the past week, was tested for validity and reliability in Turkish. Participants' metabolic equivalent of task (MET) values are calculated as follows .
Time frame
