dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aerobic running exercise on lipid profile and body composition in men with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Material and Methods: A total of thirty-one voluntary young adult men (n= 13 control, n= 18 training) participated in this study as subjects. Subjects had not participated in any regular exercise programs, but all subjects were moderately active and non-smokers. Also, the dietary controls were not imposed for all subjects. Participants in the training group performed running exercise program 45-60 min/day, 3 days/week for 8 weeks at an intensity of 50-70% of target heart rate. Results: Body weight, total skinfold thickness and triglycerides (TG) levels significantly decreased, while maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) and the plasma HDL-C levels increased significantly in training group (p< 0.05). Total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels did not significantly change in the both groups. Conclusion: Results of the present study suggest that aerobic exercise is particularly helpful to improve the lipid profile, aerobic capacity and body composition in men. However, we found a statistically significant increased in aerobically trained in subjects without energy-restriction diet and with low initial HDL-C. Although the HDL-C levels were still under the normal range. Copyright © 2011 by Türkiye Klinikleri.en_US
