Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein concentration after 12-week combined aerobic exercise and resistance training. Subjects were composed of 6 obese women in their twenties. The training program was separated indoor running and muscular resistance training. The indoor running was composed of 60% HRmax, 20 minutes per day, 4 days per week, and the method of muscular resistance training during 12 weeks was established to practice the training of 3 sets through repeated frequency of 30-35 times with the loading of the load was gradually increased by measuring 1RM every 2 weeks. In the changes of serum lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein concentration, T-C, TG, LDL-C, VLDL-C, T-C/HDL, LDL/HDL, Apo-B, Apo C-Ⅲ, Apo-B/Apo A-Ⅰ, AI, and Lipase showed significantly decrease as a result of 12-week combined exercise training, whereas FFA, HDL-C, Apo A-Ⅰ, A-Ⅱ and Apo C-Ⅱ revealed significantly increase after combined exercise training. In this result, it could be suggested that 12-week combined aerobic exercise and resistance training demonstrated positive effects to the changes of serum lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein metabolism. Therefore, it is maybe thought that combined training program was ideal exercise type for the obese female.
