Description
Summary:Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of endurance and combination training on serum levels of Fetuin-A and metabolic syndrome of overweight and obese women. Materials and Methods: This was a semi-experimental study and 45 overweight and obese women were randomly divided into three groups: “control”, “aerobic exercise” and “combined exercise” groups. The aerobic exercise and combined exercise groups were active for eight weeks. After blood sampling, Fetuin-A, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride, total cholesterol and glucose were measured. Results: The results showed that after eight weeks in the aerobic and combined groups, Fetuin-A significantly increased (P=0.022, P=0.011). Also, LDL was significantly decreased in aerobic and combined groups (P=0.006, P=0.024). The results showed that the combined group had a significant decrease in TC, TG, FAT, BMI, and WHR compared to baseline and a significant increase in HDL (P<0.05). Also, Fetuin-A decreased in aerobic and combined groups compared to the control group. The combined group showed a significant decrease in TC compared to the control and aerobic groups (P<0.05). Besides, the combined group had lower TG, FAT, BMI, and WHR indices compared to the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that combined exercises compared aerobic training had significant decreasing effects on Fetuin-A, as well as metabolic syndrome indices in obese and overweight individuals and contributes to the improvement of the dangers of obesity and cardiovascular risk factors.
