- Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 6 and 12 weeks of aerobic training on changes in serum IL-10 levels and lipid profile in inactive obese women. Design: In this study 31 healthy obese and inactive women with a mean age of 42/51 ± 6/3 were randomly assigned to two experimental group (n = 17) and control group (n = 14). Subjects participated in a twelve week aerobic protocol. Aerobic exercise consisted of three 75-minute sessions per week for twelve weeks. Intensity of exercise during training was in the range of 55 to 80 percent of maximum heart rate. Blood samples were collected from all subjects 24 hours before the training, after 6 weeks of aerobic exercise and 48 hours after the end of 12 weeks of aerobic training. A group of women (n = 10) who were healthy and had normal weight with BMI in the range of 22 to 25 kg/m² variables were considered as the basis for comparison. Statistical operations were performed using analysis of variance, repeated measures and spss software. Results: The results showed that weight, BMI and body fat percentage compared with control subjects showed a significant decrease during exercise program(P≤ 0.05). However, levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol did not change significantly. Also, HDL and serum IL-10 levels significantly increased during 6 and 12 weeks of aerobic training (P ≤ 0.05). Conclusion: aerobic training that includes a range of 55 to 80 percent of maximum heart rate can lead to positive results such as increased levels of inflammatory Cytokines IL-10 and improved lipid profile in obese women.
