Effect of Aerobic Training on Coronary Heart Disease Risk Factors in Obese Men

Abstract :

The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of aerobic training on coronary heart disease risk factors in
obese men. Twenty four (N = 24) obese men (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) were randomly selected subjects from working in various faculties of Annamalai University, India. The selected subjects were age, height and weight ranged was 38 ± 3 years, 167 ± 9 cm and 89 ± 14 kg respectively. Selected subjects were divided into two groups with twelve subjects (n=12) of each group. Group I acted as control group and Group II underwent aerobic training group. The aerobic training program consisted of 12 week (4 day/ week) in about from 30 to 45 minutes per day. The biochemical analyses were very low density lipoproteins and triglycerides. Blood samples were collected prior to after the completion of 12 weeks training. The pre, post and adjusted post-test means were collected from two groups for using by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The mean difference if the optioned ‘f’ ratio was significant level of fixed at 0.5 was confidence. The result of study was aerobic training decreased in VLDL and TG level in obese men associated with reduced CHD risk. It was concluded; the aerobic training was 5.02% and 3.88% decreased on VLDL and TG (P <0.05) level respectively in obese men.
