Introduction
The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of aerobic training on body composition, insulin- like growth factor-1 (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3) in obese women. Materials And Methods
18 obese women were randomly selected and divided into two experimental (n=9; age=33.3±5.9 yrs; weight=76.0±12.9 kg; height=158.1±7.0 cm; VO2max=24.7±4.1 ml/kg/min; BMI=31.4±3.1 kg/m2) and control (n=9; age=33.7±4.6 yrs; weight=75.9±12.4 kg; height=154.2±6.5 cm; VO2max=24.7±2.7 ml/kg/min; BMI=31.7±3.6 kg/m2) group. The experimental group performed aerobic training 3 sessions per week for 8 weeks with 65-75% HRmax. Anthropometrical factors such as weight, body fat percentage, WHR and BMI were measured along with basal serum IGF-1, IGFBP-3, insulin and glucose before and after the training period. Results
The results shown that BMI, body fat percentage, weight and WHR were significantly decreased and maximal oxygen consumption was increased after 8 weeks aerobic training program (p<0.05). However, serum IGF-1, IGFBP-3, insulin and glucose had no significant changes in experimental and control, both, groups (p>0.05). Conclusion
It is likely that due to a insufficient exercise intensity and period, no significant changes in IGF-1, IGFBP-3, insulin, and glucose were found. Anthropometric factors and aerobic fitness, however, were developed after this training program in obese womenKeywords:
