Effect of concurrent training on the Serum Paraoxonase-1(PON-1) activity and Lipid Profile in obese men
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 9
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of concurrent training on serum paraoxonase-1 (PON1) activity and lipid profile in obese men. sixteen obese men volunteered to participate in this research. They were randomly assigned into two groups: concurrent training group (n=8) and control group (n=8). Duration of training was 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week and each session lasted 70 min. Concurrent training group carried out exercises at 60-75 percent of heart rate reserve. In order to evaluate the effect of concurrent training on PON1 activity and lipid profile, the t-test were used. Statistical significance was accepted if P<0.05. Correlation coefficient was used to determine associations between variables. Results show significant increase in PON1 activity and significant reduce in total serum cholesterol (p ? 0.05) but other lipid parameters of this research including LDL, HDL, VLDL, TG levels was not significant compared with control group. In addition, in obese men changes levels of paraoxonase1 have significant relationship with HDL, but there was not significant relation with the other lipid indexes of this research. However, HDL-c, HDL-c/Total cholesterol ratios and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) significantly increased (P<0.05) and body mass index (BMI) significant decreased (P<0.05) due to concurrent training.HDL function associated with PON1 activity has been consistently associated with cardiovascular and other diseases. The result of this study showed that after four weeks of concurrent training on lipid and weight changes had the desired effect and as well as significantly decrease was in enzyme paraoxonase 1 and lower cholesterol concentration.
