The programs based on aerobic exercise ( 60 min , 3 times/week , ≤75 % maximum heart rate ) improve the LDL-C and TG concentrations .
Moreover , the programs based on combined exercise ( ≥60 min , > 75 % maximum heart rate ) also improve the HDL-C concentration
OBJECTIVE The objective of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of different physical exercise interventions on the lipid profile ( high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C ) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C ) , total cholesterol ( TC ) , and triglycerides ( TG ) ) of obese children .
Effects of dietary intervention and strength training on blood lipid level in obese children
Aims : To evaluate effects of a low energy diet , with or without strength training , on blood lipid profile in obese children . Methods : Eighty two obese children were enrolled into a six week dietary programme , and were r and omly allocated to a training group or a non-training group . The training group underwent regular exercise sessions with emphasis on strength training . Results : Height increased significantly , with a non-significant reduction in body mass index . Fat free mass increased significantly in the training group . Serum total cholesterol was significantly reduced in both groups . The LDL : HDL ratio significantly decreased in the training group . Conclusion : Results support the potentially beneficial effects of both diet and physical training . Further and longer term evaluation of such programmes is required
