The effect of resistance training on level of Leptin hormone in overweight females
Abstract
Obesity is associated with adverse changes in metabolic and cardiovascular risk factors, including high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, thereby leading to an increased risk of morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Leptin had been noted to regulate energy balance and metabolism and thus to influence body weight. The present study is to determine the effect of resistance training on leptin in overweight females. Twenty overweight females subject (BMI ≥ 25) were randomly assigned to two groups (resistance training and control). The experimental training programs were performed three days a week for 12 weeks at a definite intensity and distance. Before and after 12 weeks intervention, Leptin, weight and body composition was measured for all subjects. Using independent T-test, the results showed that resistance training had significant effect on leptin, body weight and fat percentage (p ≤ 0.05). Our study finding demonstrated that resistance training leads to significant decrease of leptin levels.
