Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of sequence of aerobic and resistance exercise on free fatty acids, epinephrine, testosterone, and IGF-1. 7 healthy adult males, the subjects of this research, performed both resistance exercise after aerobic exercise and aerobic exercise after resistance exercise. V?O2max of all the subjects was measured through treadmil test, and they performed aerobic exercise for 30 minutes using treadmil at the intensity of 65% of V?O2max. They also performed resistance exercise using weight machine. They did 80%1RM × 8~10 rep × 3set with one-minute rest between each set. Resistance after aerobic subjects had their blood sample all 4 times: before aerobic exercise, after aerobic exercise, after resistance exercise, and at 30-minute in the recovery; The aerobic after resistance subjects did their blood sample all 4 times: before resistance exercise, after resistance exercise, after aerobic exercise, and at 30-minute in the recovering period. Data were analyzed using SPSS PC 20.0. The Data were analyzed by One-way repeated ANOVA. Scheffe were used as a Post-Hoc test. Statistical significance level was a=.05. As a result of this study are as follows. First, the FFA are significant for resistance exercise after aerobic exercise group(p=.028). That is, FFA significantly increased after aerobic exercise and then decreased during 30-minute in the recovering stage; the coefficients on FFA are not significant for aerobic exercise after resistance exercise group(p=.415). Second, the coefficients of epinephrine are significant for resistance exercise after aerobic exercise group(p=.012); increased epinephrine resistance after exercise decreased during 30-minute in the recovering stage; the coefficients of epinephrine are not statistically significant for aerobic exercise after resistance exercise group(p=.112). Third, testosterone are significant for aerobic exercise after resistance exercise group(p=.004); increased testosterone due to resistance exercise decreased after aerobic exercise during 30-minute in the recovering stage. However, we can see that the coefficients of testosterone are not statistically significant in case of resistance exercise after aerobic exercise group(p=.074). Fourth, we can find that the coefficients on IGF-1 are statistically significant for both aerobic after resistance exercise(p=.000) and resistance exercise after aerobic groups(p=.000); the coefficients on IGF-1 are not significant after aerobic exercise, but they are significantly increased after resistance exercise for both. In conclusion, resistance exercise after aerobic exercise is likely to have a significant effect on FFA and epinephrine; aerobic exercise after resistance exercise look to affect testosterone and IGF-1. Accordingly, based on the research findings we can find that it is important to decide the order of exercise between aerobic exercise and resistance exercise depending on the purposes fat metabolism or protein synthesis of exercise.
